Fax Form 2848 (power of attorney) to the IRS

Before you fax

• A Form 2848 signed electronically (an e-signature or a digitized image of a handwritten signature) can only be submitted online, at IRS.gov/Submit2848. Faxing is for forms signed by hand.
• If you checked the box on line 4 (a specific use not recorded on the CAF), fax or mail the form to the IRS office handling that matter instead.
• The IRS says these numbers may change without notice and lists updates under Recent Developments at IRS.gov/Form2848.

How to send it without a fax machine

1. Fill in Form 2848 and sign it by hand, taxpayer and representative.
2. Scan or photograph every page.
3. Pick the number for the taxpayer's state from the table and enter it.
4. Send, and keep the delivery receipt with your copy of the form.
