Can I change my mailing address for the upcoming economic stimulus rebate check?

1 comment so far


The address on my income tax return is my correct home address. However, I do not like my mail to come to this address for security reasons. Can I change the mailing address for the rebate check to my PO box? Or is direct deposit available for this? If so, where/how can I make these changes?

    Following are from the IRS FAQs:

    Q. I have moved since filing my 2007 tax return. How will my payment reach me?

    A. You should file a Form 8822 with the IRS and a change of address notice with the U.S. Postal Service. This will ensure your check is sent to your new address. Without your current address, the check could be returned to the IRS as undeliverable.

    Q. Can I have my stimulus payment direct deposited?

    A. Stimulus payments will be direct deposited for taxpayers who select that option when filing their 2007 tax returns. Taxpayers who already filed and requested direct deposit won’t need to do anything else to receive the stimulus payment. Taxpayers who did not request direct deposit for their 2007 refund will receive a paper check by mail. The IRS reminds taxpayers who haven’t filed their 2007 returns yet that direct deposit is the fastest way to get both regular refunds and stimulus payments.
