If your tax return has already been accepted by the IRS, it is too late to change the zip code. If your refund was being direct deposited, the wrong zip code will have no effect. If you asked for a refund to be mailed to you, there might be a delay in receiving it.

If your return has not been accepted, please wait to see if it's rejected. If it is, then you can change the zip.

We recommend that you file Form 8822, Change of Address, as soon as possible.

If your refund doesn't arrive within 2-3 weeks, you will need to fill out form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund and mail it to the IRS. You can get the mailing address from where to file and use the address for NOT enclosing a payment. Expect that it will take two months or more to get your refund. 
 
For more information, contact the Taxpayer Advocate Service.

You won't be able to make any changes until your return has been accepted or rejected by the IRS. If accepted, you would need to amend your return. If rejected, you would need to correct any information that caused your return to be rejected as well as make any other changes to your return that you see fit, then proceed to resubmit your return.
