What is Postal Mailing, and how does it work?

Postal Mailing in TaxBandits is a recipient copy distribution service that physically delivers recipient copies of tax forms—such as 1099, W-2, ACA 1095, 1098, 1042-S, 3921, and 3922—on your behalf. It eliminates the need for you to download, print, and manually send these forms yourself.

We support postal mailing for both domestic and international recipients.

How does it work?

1. Choose postal mailing - When you're submitting tax forms through TaxBandits, you can opt in to Postal Mailing either during the filing process or after submission.
    
2. We print and package it for you - TaxBandits will print your recipients’ copies along with the necessary IRS instructions. These are placed into secure #10 double-windowed envelopes, ensuring confidentiality and compliance.
    
3. We mail the forms for you - TaxBandits mails the forms directly to your recipients—whether they’re in the U.S. or overseas. No manual mailing is required on your end.
    
4. Track everything in your dashboard - You can track the entire process—from printing to delivery—within your TaxBandits account. You’ll know when forms are sent and where they are in the process.

Note: Once your forms are transmitted, the postal orders are typically scheduled for dispatch within 1–2 business days. As the deadline approaches, especially during the final week of January, orders are sent out immediately after transmission to help ensure timely delivery. You can track the entire mailing status in your TaxBandits account.
