When and Where to File: You must mail this form to the North Carolina Department of Revenue on the next working day

after you have received acknowledgment from your on-line service provider or transmitter that the North Carolina Depart-

ment of Revenue has accepted your electronically filed return. The address for mailing this form should be included in your

NC 27634-0010.

Declaration Control Number (DCN): The DCN is a 14-digit number assigned to your return by your on-line service

in the top right corner of Form NC-8453.

Name and Social Security Number (SSN): Please print in black or blue ink or type the information in the spaces pro-

vided. Make sure the social security number is legible and correct. If a joint return is being filed, make sure the names

and social security numbers are listed in the same order.

Enter the necessary information as requested from the North Carolina Individual Income Tax Return, Form D-400. Use

W2s and Other Attachments: Staple your W2s to Form NC-8453 at the place indicated at the top left of the form. Put all

other attachments, such as tax forms and schedules, behind the NC-8453. Do not staple the other attachments to the NC-

8453. Put Form NC-478 and any form in the NC-478 letter series, such as the NC-478A, in front of any other attachments.

Staple the NC-478s and any other attachments together.

Payment: If you owe tax, do not staple or otherwise attach your check or money order to Form NC-8453. Instead, mail

your payment along with Form D400-V, North Carolina Payment Voucher, to the N.C. Department of Revenue by April 15,

2000. Do not staple or otherwise attach your check or money order to the Payment Voucher. Put the check or money order

behind the Payment Voucher and then put them loose in the envelope.

Refunds. You should receive your refund within four weeks from the date the North Carolina Department of Revenue

acknowledges receipt of your electronically transmitted return. If you or your spouse owes money to the North Carolina

Department of Revenue, another State agency, or the IRS, the amount owed will be deducted from the refund. Application

of a refund to any of these debts will result in a delay in the processing of the return because all claims against a refund

must be resolved before a refund check can be processed. Please allow at least four weeks from the date of acknowledg-

ment before calling or writing the North Carolina Department of Revenue about the status of your refund.
