Fill IRS Form 8822 (Change of Address) online — free
Form 8822 tells the IRS your home mailing address changed, so refund checks, notices, and correspondence reach your new place instead of your old one. Filing a return with the new address usually updates it too, but 8822 is how you change it between returns. AttachKit fills your name and SSN from your saved profile; you add the old and new addresses (the IRS uses one combined box for each, so those stay manual) and mail it to the address for your state in the instructions.
Who needs it: Anyone who moved since their last tax return and wants IRS mail — refunds, notices, identity-verification letters — to follow them. Especially worth filing if you're expecting a refund check by mail or have an open matter with the IRS.

8822 questions, answered
General information, not legal or tax advice
This page is general information about a commonly-used tax form. Tax law is complex and fact-specific — for advice on your return, consult a CPA, enrolled agent, or tax attorney. AttachKit fills the PDF; the IRS holds you responsible for what's on it.
- Can I change my address with the IRS online instead?
- There's no general IRS online address-change form; the IRS accepts a change via your tax return, a signed written statement, a phone call (after identity verification), or Form 8822. 8822 is the standard paper method between returns — AttachKit fills it; you print and mail it to the address listed for your state in the form's instructions.
- Why doesn't AttachKit fill the address boxes?
- Form 8822 uses a single combined box for each address (street, city, state, and ZIP together), which doesn't map cleanly to the separate address fields in your profile — so AttachKit fills your name + SSN and leaves the old/new address for you to type, rather than risk mis-placing it. Every box stays editable.
- Do I need a separate 8822 for my spouse?
- If you filed jointly and you're both moving to the same new address, one 8822 with both names works (it has spouse name/SSN lines). If you've since established separate residences, each spouse should file their own. Form 8822-B is the version for a business address.
- Where do I mail it?
- There's no single address — Form 8822's instructions list a mailing address based on your old state. Check the instructions page before sending, and don't attach 8822 to your tax return.
