IRS Transcript Request Fax Number — Get Your Tax Transcripts
Mortgage lenders, loan officers, and financial reviewers frequently ask for IRS tax transcripts, and you request them by faxing Form 4506-T. The destination fax number depends on the state you lived in when you filed, so the 4506-T instructions list the right line for your location. If you only need a basic transcript you can use the shorter Form 4506-T-EZ, while Form 4506 is for an actual copy of the filed return. Faxing the request typically beats mailing it by a week or more.

- Form 4506-T (Request for Transcript of Tax Return)
- Form 4506 (Request for Copy of Tax Return)
- Form 4506-T-EZ (Short Form Request)
- Mortgage lender verification requests
- Third-party authorization forms
Tip: Sign Form 4506-T exactly as your name appeared on the original return — a mismatched signature is the most common reason these get rejected. Enter your current address along with the address the IRS has on file if the two differ, so the request isn't held for verification. Faxed 4506-T requests are generally handled in five to ten business days, and if a mortgage lender is the third-party recipient, list their name and address in the form's third-party section.
