Regarding Mail 1040

Hi team, 

I mailed my documents to my local IRS office.

But I forgot to sign them .

So my question is  , do I need to send the documents again by self attesting them.

Do not mail in another return, that could complicate things because there would be two returns for the same person in the IRS system.  The IRS will send back your return & request you sign it & then mail it back.  It can take a couple weeks because mailed returns are processed by hand.
