Proof of delivery for 3520?

Hello all,

 

I know that 3520 can only be filed through mail. The question is : how do I know that the IRS actually received the form?

-Some suggest that I sent it through certified delivery with signature required on delivered and keep that record as receipt in case IRS lose my form or it get lost during mailing.

-Others said that I filed 4506-T request for transcript of tax return and request 3520 on line 6 and check record of transcript for the current tax year after 1 week or 2  to see if IRS actually receive and record my 3520 in the system. Or is there any other form that can help me request a receipt of 3520 that you can suggest?

 

I know that I should talk to a tax professional; however, there is no tax professional near me that specialize in this work (I even seek out online tax expert, but they all said it is not guaranteed) so here I am asking the community of experts to give some pointers.

Proof of delivery for 3520?

Send Form 3520 to the following address. 

 

Internal Revenue Service Center 

P.O. Box 409101

Form 3520 must have all required attachments to be considered complete.

 

Why not use both "means of proof" that you detailed above.
