You can't actually change your address shown on a tax return if
you've already filed it. However, if you requested an electronic direct
deposit of your tax refund, then your mailing address shouldn't matter.
That
said, to change or update your address independently of your tax
return, you can file Form 8822 with the IRS. It's a simple one-page
form with one page of instructions. You can fill it out by hand and
file it by regular mail. Here is a courtesy link to that document:

Alternatively, you have some other choices, including calling the
IRS by telephone (1-800-829-1040). These choices are outlined and
explained at the following IRS.gov webpage:

There are similar procedures in place for your state department
of revenue, if applicable. Simply follow the basic process above (find
out if there is a dedicated form to file, or you can call them and
verbally tell them your new address).
Thank you for asking this question.
