I have a client that has a different mailing address than their physical address (PO BOX) How do we put both on the return.

IRS wants to know where to send you mail, Id use the PO Box.  You cant input 2 addresses.

Yes I'd use the mailing address on the 1040.

But some states, such as MD, also require you to tell them your physical address as of 12/31/20.

The more I know, the more I don't know.

I have some folks that live places where there is no PO street delivery.  Some of those folks will provide a street address followed by the PO Box.  As long as the physical address isn't too long, I will sometimes go that route and type both addresses on the address line of the return.

I've done that, too.

Where do you enter two different addresses?

I put the mailing address and make notes.  If street address gets mail (not directed to PO BOX) then I put street address.  That is something some states (California) and USPS has got to get on the same page.  California requires street addresses.  When they print some 1099's they use a PO BOX.

@ATBLLC As noted in the prior posts-you can't.
