Fax Form 4506-T — transcript request

Form 4506-T (Request for Transcript of Tax Return) is faxed to one of three RAIVS units — Kansas City 855-821-0094, Austin 855-587-9604 or Ogden 855-298-1145 — but the IRS keeps TWO different state charts: one for individual transcripts (Form 1040 series, W-2, 1099) and one for all other transcripts. The same state can route differently: a Texas 1040 transcript goes to Austin, a Texas business transcript to Ogden.

We carry both charts and route from your state plus the transcript type, following the current IRS where-to-file page — which, per the IRS's own note, overrides the chart still printed on the form itself. Sign and date the form within 120 days of submission. If you only need your own transcript, the IRS online account is usually faster and free; fax matters when the form must carry a handwritten signature or a third party's authorization.

Frequently asked questions

To the RAIVS unit for the state on the return: Kansas City 855-821-0094, Austin 855-587-9604 or Ogden 855-298-1145. Which unit depends on BOTH the state and the transcript type — the IRS publishes separate charts for 1040-series transcripts and for all other transcripts, and they differ.

Individual transcripts (Form 1040 series, W-2, 1099) follow one chart; business and all other transcripts follow another. The charts disagree for 18 of the 51 states (DC included) and for international addresses — e.g. Michigan: Ogden for a 1040 transcript but Kansas City for a business one. Our sender applies the correct chart automatically.

Yes — 4506T-EZ only covers 1040-series transcripts, so it always follows the individual chart.
