## Facts

### What Is Form 4506-T Used For?

Form 4506-T is used to request IRS transcripts, including return, account, record of account, wage and income, and an IRS Form 4506-T verification of non-filing letters. A transcript summarizes your return data but isn’t a photocopy; for copies, use Form 4506.

### Who Should Use Form 4506-T?

Taxpayers, joint-return spouses, and authorized representatives should use Form 4506-T when they need IRS transcripts. Use Form 4506-T for a deceased person only as the executor or administrator, attaching the death certificate and court letters or Form 56.

### When Is Form 4506-T Due?

Form 4506-T has no filing deadline, because requesting a transcript is voluntary. However, the IRS must receive it within 120 days of your signature date, or it rejects the request. Current-year non-filing verification is available only after June 15.

### What Happens If Form 4506-T Is Not Submitted?

If Form 4506-T is not submitted, the IRS simply issues no transcript, since requests are voluntary. No Form 4506-T penalties apply for skipping it, though a lender or agency may delay your application. However, false or fraudulent information on the form can bring penalties.

### How and Where Do I File Form 4506-T?

File Form 4506-T by mail or fax to the IRS address listed for the state where you lived when you filed the return. The IRS mails transcripts only to your address of record, and most requests take up to 10 business days.
