How do I get Form 1040-V?

Form 1040-V (Payment Voucher) is an optional form that you can mail the IRS if you're paying your taxes by check.

• If you're paper-filing and paying via check, we'll include your 1040-V with your tax return printout, along with mailing instructions.
• If you're e-filing and paying via check, we'll prepare your 1040-V right after you e-file so you can print it out.
• If you're paying through an installment agreement, you can download the form and mailing instructions from the IRS.

You can omit the 1040-V if you make sure your name, address, Social Security number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), tax year, related tax form number (like Form 1040), and daytime phone number are on the check.
