Common Mistakes & Tips for a Successful Refund Claim

• Incorrect Tax Year: Double‑check that the tax year you’re claiming matches the year on your original TurboTax return.
• Missing Signature: The form is not valid without a handwritten signature (or a qualified electronic signature).
• Incomplete Explanation: Provide a clear, concise reason for the refund. Vague statements often lead to delays.
• Attach Supporting Docs: Include copies of the original return, payment receipts, or any correspondence from the IRS.

Where to Get Help and Submit Your Refund Request

After completing Form 843, you can:

• Mail it to the IRS address listed in the instructions (usually the address for your state).
• Submit it through a tax professional who can forward it on your behalf.
• Contact the IRS Help Line for specific questions.

Remember, TurboTax support can guide you on where to attach Form 843 within the TurboTax interface, but the actual refund claim is processed by the IRS.
