The National Association of the Deaf (NAD) is partnering with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to make sure important information reaches the deaf community.

Last spring, the IRS produced three public service announcement videos, “Economic Stimulus Payment Basics,” in American Sign Language (ASL) which are now in open captions and voice over instead of transcripts.

Now the IRS has produced four new public service announcement videos and a short 1040-A instructional video in ASL with open captions and voice over.

“We are delighted to bring you these new video clips”, said Nancy J. Bloch, NAD Chief Executive Officer. We are so pleased that the IRS has produced four more announcements in ASL with captions and voice over so that this important information is accessible to deaf and hard of hearing Americans.”
