How to Get Copies of My 2005 Federal Income Tax
- 1). Download Form 4506 from the IRS website in Resource 1. You can also request that Form 4506 be mailed to you by calling the IRS at (800) 829-3676.
- 2). Complete and sign Form 4506. The IRS says that copies of jointly filed tax returns may be requested by either spouse and only one signature is required.
- 3). Make a check or money order payable to "United States Treasury" for the fee listed on the form. As of late 2009, that fee was $57.
- 4). Mail the completed, signed form and check to the address indicated on Form 4506. This address will vary depending on which state you lived in when you filed your 2005 tax return.
- 5). Allow 60 calendar days to receive the copy of your 2005 tax return.
