Are 2017 tax forms available for mailing

According to the IRS, the 2017 tax forms are no longer available for mailing. The IRS typically stops producing and distributing paper copies of tax forms for previous years after a certain period, usually around 3-4 years after the filing deadline.

For the 2017 tax year, the IRS stopped producing paper copies of tax forms in December 2020. This means that you will not be able to obtain a paper copy of the 2017 tax forms from the IRS by mail.

However, you can still access and print the 2017 tax forms from the IRS website. You can visit the IRS website at irs.gov and search for the specific form you need. You can also use the IRS's "Get Transcript Online" tool to view and print your 2017 tax transcript, which includes your tax return information.

Additionally, you can also contact the IRS by phone or visit an IRS office to request a copy of your 2017 tax return. Keep in mind that there may be a fee for this service.

It's worth noting that the IRS recommends e-filing and e-accepting tax returns, as it is a more efficient and secure way to file and receive tax returns.
