The Internal Revenue Service has free tax forms and publications on a wide variety of topics. Because of continued growth in electronic filing, the availability of free options to taxpayers and to reduce costs, the IRS discontinued the automatic mailing of paper tax packages last tax season.
If you need IRS forms or Tax Help, here are four easy methods for getting them.
- On the Internet You can access forms and publications on the IRS website 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at www.irs.gov.
- IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers: TAC Phone: 800-919-9835. There are 401 TACs across the country where IRS offers face-to-face assistance to taxpayers, and where taxpayers can pick up many IRS forms and publications. Visit www.irs.gov –> Office Locator and enter your zip code to find the IRS walk-in office nearest you as well as a list of the services available at specific offices.
- At convenient locations in your community During the tax filing season, many libraries and post offices offer free tax forms to taxpayers. Herrin City Library also has copies of commonly requested publications.
