Can i mail my 1065

Yes, you can mail your Form 1065, Partnership Return, to the IRS. However, it's recommended to file electronically through the IRS Free File program or a tax preparation software, as it's faster, more accurate, and reduces the risk of errors or lost documents.

If you still prefer to mail your Form 1065, make sure to:

  1. Use the correct address: Send your return to the IRS address listed on the Form 1065 instructions or the IRS website.
  2. Use the correct envelope: Use a large, flat envelope (at least 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 inches) to ensure your return fits comfortably.
  3. Attach all required documents: Include all required schedules, forms, and attachments, such as:
    • Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) for each partner
    • Schedule M-1 (Form 1065) for the partnership's income and deductions
    • Any other required schedules or forms
  4. Sign and date the return: Ensure the partnership's authorized representative signs and dates the return.
  5. Use the correct postage: Use a first-class mail stamp or a certified mail, return receipt requested, to ensure your return is delivered to the IRS.

The IRS recommends filing your Form 1065 by the deadline, which is typically March 15th for calendar-year partnerships. If you're unable to file by the deadline, you can request an automatic extension by filing Form 7004, Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File Certain Business Income Tax, Information, and Other Returns.

Remember to keep a copy of your filed return and all supporting documents for your records.
