To Post:

Sign and date all copies of your forms. Your return is rejected if you don’t.

Ask the post office for envelopes to mail your tax forms. These might already have a stamp on them. You will need additional postage of about 21 cents on the envelope with your SC Tax because it has more paper in it.

Make sure you know where the To and Return address go (Click this link for an example). This is the opposite of the Indian system, and you will get your tax forms mailed to yourself if you get it wrong.
