1) The IRS and state revenue agencies are now requiring that your driver's license information be included in the electronic filing for each taxpayer and spouse as a security checking measure. Therefore we ask that you please provide us with the following information for both you and your spouse, as applicable:

TAXPAYER SPOUSE

|Driver's license issuing state | | |

|Driver's license number | | |

|Driver's license issue date | | |

|Driver's license expiration date | | |

|NY document number (first 3 alphanumeric characters)* | | |

Alternatively, you can scan your driver's license(s) and send us a copy.

Failure to provide this information may result in a IRS letter 5071C generated by the IRS requesting verification of your identity in order to process your tax return which may delay the processing of your overpayment credit or refund.

* The NY document number is the 8 or 10 alphanumeric character string at the bottom right of the NY license or on the back if it was issued after January 28, 2014. On enhanced NY licenses issued after 1/28/2014, the document number can also begin after 'IDUSA' and is on the back of the document. 

Very Important: If you have received an IRS Identity Protection Personal Identification Number for your 2018 tax return filing please provide a copy of the notice CP01A which reflects this number. Note that each year the IRS reissues new IRS Identity Protection Personal Identification Numbers if you are eligible, so last year’s number would no longer be valid.
