RETURN FILING TIPS

FILE ELECTRONICALLY - File electronically instead of using paper tax forms. If you file electronically and choose direct deposit,

you can receive your refund in less than 15 business days.

CHECK THE IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS - When filing a return, carefully check the identification numbers — usually Social

Security numbers — for each person listed. Incorrect or illegible Social Security numbers can delay or reduce a tax refund.

MAILING ADDRESS- Make sure your mailing address is complete and accurate on your return.

DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR FIGURES - You should double-check that you have correctly calculated the refund or balance due.

CHECK THE TAX TABLES - If you are filing using a paper return you should double-check that you have used the right figure

from the tax table.

SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS- Include copies of all income statements (W-2, 1099, etc.) indicating Georgia income tax with-

held. You are not required to submit 1099 forms with your Georgia return unless Georgia income tax was withheld.

SIGN YOUR FORM - Taxpayers must sign and date their returns. Both spouses must sign a joint return, even if only one had

income. Anyone paid to prepare a return must also sign it.

MAILING YOUR RETURN –Mail your return, payment and all necessary documentation to the appropriate address listed on the

return. For additional mailing addresses, please check the section called “Where Do You File?” in the tax instruction booklet.

Sending your return via certified mail or courier will not speed processing of your return and will delay your refund.

ELECTRONIC PAYMENTS -

Electronic payment options are convenient, safe and secure methods for paying taxes. You can

authorize an electronic funds withdrawal, or use a credit card or a debit card. For more information on electronic payment

MAILING A PAYMENT – If you are filing a paper return; mail your return, 525 TV payment voucher and your payment to the

address that appears on the return. The check or money order should be made payable to “Georgia Department of Revenue”.

Make sure to include the Social Security number and tax year on all payments and correspondence. For faster, more accurate

posting of your payment, use a payment voucher with a valid scanline from the Department of Revenue’s website at

EXTENSION TO FILE - By the April due date, taxpayers should either file a return or request an extension of time to file.

Remember, the extension of time to file is not an extension of time to pay. Please use form IT-560 to make an extension

payment. Your extension payment can be paid via the DOR website https://gtc.dor.ga.gov/_/#1 to “Make a quick payment”.

DOR WEBSITE- Forms and publications and helpful information on a variety of tax subjects are available around the clock on

the Georgia Department of Revenue Web site at

AMENDED RETURNS- File Form 500X to correct information reported on Form 500. Do not use Form 500 to correct a

previously filed return or Form 500X as an original return. Form 500X is located on the DOR website at https://etax.dor.ga.gov/

inctax/individual_income_tax_forms.aspx . Please mail your completed Form 500X to Georgia Department of Revenue, PO

Box 740318, Atlanta, GA 30374-0318.
