Show Newlyweds notify IRS Newlyweds and others who changed their names this year should report their new name to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The IRS says the new name and social security numbers on tax returns are matched with names and number of the SSA in processing proces-sing the returns. Refunds can be delayed if the name and social security number do not match. Another good way to avoid refund re-fund delays, the IRS says, is to use the peel-off identification label which contains code numbers for IRS to process it more quickly, and the pre-addressed envelope provided pro-vided with the tax package. If the name, address, or social security number is incorrect, simply draw a line through the incorrect part and write in the correction. |
