How to change your address for Pennsylvania state taxes
To change the address on your Pennsylvania taxes, go through the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue — the options are below. Do it separately from the IRS, though: updating your Pennsylvania address does not change your federal record, so you’ll also need to file Form 8822 with the IRS.
What are your options with the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue?
- myPATH online (update account profile)
- Update address on next PA-40 return
Official source: Department of Revenue — change of address. Pennsylvania has a flat-rate personal income tax. Individuals change their address via myPATH or by entering the new address on their next PA-40 return; the paper REV-1705R is for business accounts, not individuals.
Don’t forget the IRS — this is the part we handle
Federal taxes are separate from Pennsylvania. The IRS keeps its own address for your notices and refunds, and for individuals the only way to update it is Form 8822 — by mail, with no online option. That’s the errand we take off your plate, nationwide.
Fill the federal Form 8822 online in about a minute, sign on screen, and we mail it to the correct IRS office — Certified, with tracking. (For your Pennsylvania change, use the official link above; we don’t file state forms.)
