The IRS and State Revenue Offices will not pay for Postage Due returns. If you use a larger envelope, First Class postage is 83 cents for the first ounce, 17 cents for each additional ounce.
- If you use a non-IRS labeled envelope, make sure you print the proper IRS address.
- Print your return address in the upper-left-hand corner of your tax mail envelope.
