Obtaining Copies of Previously Filed Tax Returns

Individuals

To get a copy or transcript of your tax return, complete Form DCC-1 and send it to:

New Jersey Division of Taxation
Document Control Center
PO Box 269
Trenton, NJ 08695-0269

You also can get a copy of your NJ-1040, NJ-1040NR or NJ-1041 at a Division of Taxation Regional Information Center. We will only release the tax return to the person(s) who signed the return or to an authorized representative. An authorized representative must provide a Form M-5008-R that covers the return(s) being requested. To pick up a copy/transcript of your return you must provide a photo ID (driver’s license or other government issued photo ID). If you are not the person who signed the return (or that person’s authorized representative), we won’t be able to provide you with a copy. However, we can process your request and will send copies to the individual who signed the return at the address on file with the Division of Taxation.

Businesses

Any return filed through the On-line Services Filing and Payment Services can be obtained by logging on with your Business Identification Number and assigned PIN number.
