Use the Peel-Off Label
Using your peel-off name and address label on the back of this booklet will
speed the processing of your return. It also prevents common errors that can
delay refunds or result in unnecessary notices. Put the label on your return
after you have finished it. Cross out any incorrect information and print the
correct information. Add any missing items, such as your apartment number.
Address Change
If the address on your peel-off label is not your current address, cross out
your old address and print your new address. If you plan to move after filing
your return, see page 60.
Name Change
If you changed your name, be sure to report the change to your local Social
Security Administration office before filing your return. This prevents delays
in processing your return and issuing refunds. It also safeguards your future
social security benefits. See page
60 for more details. If you received a peel-off
label, cross out your former name and print your new name.
What If You Do Not Have a Label?
Print or type the information in the spaces provided. If you are married filing
a separate return, enter your husband’s or wife’s name on line
3 instead of below your name.
