Greetings,
As the title says, I used Fedex overnight to deliver federal tax return and form 3520 in the same package to the following address:
Ogden - Internal Revenue Submission Processing Center 1973 Rulon White Blvd. Ogden, UT 84201
(This is the private delivery service address for Ogden IRS, different from the PO box address used by USPS)
I used Fedex and the address above, because IRS website says tax return could be delivered using private delivery service to the above address. I was under the impression that 3520 was part of the tax return, but now just learnt it is not. It is considered an information return. The IRS website says tax return can be sent though FedEx to the processing center, but does not mention if information return can be sent through FedEx. The form 3520 instruction says:
Send to:
Internal Revenue Service Center
P.O. Box 409101
Ogden, UT 84409
I am now not sure if IRS will process my form 3520 with the way it was sent. My question is: Does IRS check and keep a record of every form sent to processing center? Is it ok to send 3520 and tax return in the same package? Will a form 3520 sent through Fedex to the processing center address be processed? Am I screwed?
