Hold On to your tax returns for at least 3 years

The IRS also reminded taxpayers to hold onto copies of their prior-year tax returns for at least three years. Taxpayers who are changing the tax software products they use this filing season will need to get their adjusted gross income from their 2015 tax return in order to file electronically. The Electronic Filing Pin is no longer an option. Taxpayers can visit IRS.Gov/GetReady to get more advice on preparing to file their 2016 tax return.
