| Issue Number: IRS Summer Tax Tip 2014-11Inside This IssueRequest a Transcript or Copy of a Prior Year Tax Return You may need copies of your filed tax returns for many reasons. For example, they can help you prepare future tax returns. You'll need them if you have to amend a prior year tax return. You often need them when you apply for a loan to buy a home or to start a business. You may need them if you apply for student aid. If you can't find your copies, the IRS can give you a transcript of the information you need, or a copy of your tax return. Here's how to get your federal tax return information from the IRS: • Transcripts are free and you can get them for the current year and the past three years. In most cases, a transcript includes the tax information you need. • A tax return transcript shows most line items from the tax return that you filed. It also includes items from any accompanying forms and schedules that you filed. It doesn't reflect any changes you or the IRS made after you filed your original return. • A tax account transcript includes your marital status, the type of return you filed, your adjusted gross income and taxable income. It does include any changes that you or the IRS made to your tax return after you filed it. • You can get your free transcripts immediately online. You can also get them by phone, by mail or by fax within five to 10 days from the time IRS receives your request. - To view and print your transcripts online, go to IRS.gov and use the Get Transcript tool. • If you need a copy of your filed and processed tax return, it will cost $50 for each tax year. You should complete Form 4506, Request for Copy of Tax Return, to make the request. Mail it to the IRS address listed on the form for your area. Copies are generally available for the current year and past six years. You should allow 75 days for delivery. • If you live in a federally declared disaster area, you can get a free copy of your tax return. Visit IRS.gov for more disaster relief information. Tax forms are available 24/7 on IRS.gov. You can also call 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676) to get them by mail.
