Incorrect Home Address - Zip Code

I filed my son's taxes yesterday.  I discovered a mistake in his Zip Code as I went to file his local taxes.  How is the best way to revise the address with the IRS and his State Tax department?

There is a form that can be used to change an address with the IRS.  It is Form 8822.  Here is a link for further information:

There may be a similar form available for your state, or you could contact the state department of revenue for advice about the situation.  The following TurboTax article has a link to each state's department of revenue:

You do not need to file an amended return for Federal or state to correct the zip code.
