Question: How to get a Tax Transcript?

Answer: There are 5 different ways to get your IRS Tax transcripts:

1. Go to www.irs.gov and click on “Get Transcript of Your Tax Records” under “Tools.”
2. Download the free IRS2Go app on Apple Store or Google Play to your smartphone and use it to order transcripts of your tax returns or tax account.
3. Call the IRS transcript toll-free line at 1-800-908-9946 to have them faxed to you or mailed to you. (Takes about 10-14 business days)
4. Mail Form 4506-T or Form 4506T-EZ (make sure to sign the form and mailed out to the IRS).  You can also request IRS Form 4506, which allows you to get a copy of your original tax return mailed back to you.  The cost is $57 per tax year.)
5. Go to your local IRS office and request a tax transcript (You must make an appointment before going to the IRS office.  No more walk-ins allowed)

If you need the State tax transcript, you would need to call your local State taxation department to get the state transcript.
