State-by-State Guide to IRS Mailing Addresses
When tax season arrives, numerous tasks exist, such as filling out forms for your employees, staying updated with tax laws, and ensuring accurate reporting of all figures. One often overlooked aspect is knowing the correct IRS mailing address to send your tax returns. The IRS mailing address varies depending on your location, so having the right information is crucial.
Filing a Paper Tax Return
Although e-filing and hiring a professional accountant are common methods, filing your income taxes by mail is still possible. While paper filing can reduce hacking risks, it often takes longer, meaning you might wait longer for any expected refunds.
