The fax and mail options for submitting Forms 2848 and 8821 are still available, however signatures on such forms must be handwritten. Using the online option will not accelerate the time necessary for the IRS to process the authorizations, which is currently estimated to be five weeks.
The key difference between the two is that Form 8821 will only allow someone to view your tax information, while Form 2848 will allow them to act on your behalf with this information.
File Form 8821 to: Authorize any individual, corporation, firm, organization, or partnership you designate to inspect and/or receive your confidential information verbally or in writing for the type of tax and the years or periods listed on the form.
