How Do You Change A Mailing Address For An IRS Refund?
Most post offices will not forward your federal tax refund to a new address, so you must inform the Internal Revenue Service if you move.The easiest time to do this is when you are filling out your tax return; however, it is even more important to notify the IRS if you move after filing the return. If you and your spouse have different residences, or if you separate or divorce after filing your tax return, both of you will have to notify the IRS of the new residences. Change your tax return’s mailing label prior to submitting your tax return, if you know your new address. Use a pen or permanent marker to cross a line through the old address and write the new address directly on the label. Write your new address in the appropriate boxes underneath your name on the tax return, and check the box for an address change. If you have already submitted your tax return with the old address, file Form 8822 as soon as you know your new mailing address. This form can be ordered by calling (800) TA
