IRS Alternative Media Center provides tax info in multiple formats

The IRS Alternative Media Center offers hundreds of products in various formats to make sure taxpayers have equal access to important tax information.

People can view and download hundreds of tax forms, instructions, and publications in alternative formats from Accessible Forms and Publications page of IRS.gov including:

• Section 508 compliant PDFs
• Browser-friendly HTML
• eBraille
• Text only
• Large print
• Paper copies, Braille, or large print products can also be requested by calling 800-829-3676

The accessibility helpline can answer questions
The IRS Accessibility Helpline can answer questions related to accessibility services and alternative media formats available to taxpayers with disabilities. For accessibility assistance, taxpayers can call 833-690-0598. The Accessibility Helpline doesn’t have access to taxpayer IRS accounts. For assistance with tax law, refunds and other account related issues, people can visit the Let Us Help You page of IRS.gov.

Requesting IRS tax notices
Taxpayers have a few different options to request IRS tax notices in Braille, large print, audio and electronic formats:

• Select the preference on their IRS Individual Online account
• Complete Form 9000, Alternative Media Preference and include it with their tax return or mail it as a standalone form to the IRS
• Call the tax assistance number 800-829-1040, to elect the preferred format

Once the IRS processes the taxpayer’s Form 9000, future notices will arrive in the taxpayer’s preferred format.
To request notices in their preferred language, taxpayers can complete Form 1040 Schedule LEP. The AMC provides all alternative media formats in Spanish and all available languages in large print. And the AMC is working to introduce more IRS resources in accessible formats.
