To ensure the prompt processing of your clients' electronically filed 1040 returns, send paper forms to the IRS after receiving acknowledgments from the IRS.

  • Form 8453 is due within three days of acceptance of the electronic return.
  • Forms 8878 and 8879 are held by the preparer unless requested by the IRS.

Only one IRS submission processing center accepts Form 8453. See Form 8453 mailing address for 1040 electronic filers for more information.
