Realized I input the wrong address when filing, mixing up the numbers. Refund is direct and not by check, but would like to update/undo filing if possible

Once you have transmitted your returns and they have been accepted, there is no way to "undo" that. You will need to contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 to update your address.

If your returns are rejected, you can update your information and make any necessary changes without having to contact the IRS.

It was rejected but i can't figure out how to go back to change it. Can you help me?

More information about your rejected e-file would help diagnose your problem. For example, what was the rejection code or message?

You should notify the IRS of your correct address, either by phone, by filing form 8822 or by sending them a letter. You can use this link to learn more:

If you have a refund and it is to be direct deposited into your account, your address will not affect that. Otherwise, you may want to put in a change of address with the postal system so a check sent to the wrong address from the IRS may be forwarded to you.

I also have the same problem, my check was mailed off may 21...I filed my taxes with the old address and then found a place a month later and have a change of address..they forwarded my payment issue notice but I'm worried, will the post office forward my check to the new address?

How did you resolve this issues because I filed for my tax refund and put in the wrong address that doesn’t exist it and I am trying to figure out how to speak to a federal rep so they can cancel it and send a new one
