How to obtain a Federal Tax Return Transcript
To obtain an IRS tax return transcript, go to “Order a Return or Account Transcript” at IRS.gov, or call 1-800-908-9946. Make sure to request the “IRS tax return transcript” and not the “IRS tax account transcript.” You will need your Social Security Number, date of birth, and the address on file with the IRS (normally this will be the address used when the most recent year's IRS tax return was filed). It takes up to two weeks for IRS income information to be available for electronic IRS tax return filers, and up to eight weeks for paper IRS tax return filers.
