For a paper Georgia individual income tax return, the mailing address depends on whether you owe tax or expect a refund (or owe nothing).

Main mailing addresses (individual GA return)

  • If you owe tax and are sending a payment with your Georgia return, mail to:
    Georgia Department of Revenue, Processing Center, P.O. Box 740399, Atlanta, GA 30374-0399.
  • If you expect a refund or do not owe tax , mail to:
    Georgia Department of Revenue, Processing Center, P.O. Box 740380, Atlanta, GA 30374-0380.
  • Some guidance sites list alternate PO Boxes (such as P.O. Box 105613 for balance-due returns and P.O. Box 105597 for other returns), which are also Georgia Department of Revenue processing centers in Atlanta. Because addresses can change, always check the most recent instructions printed on your specific Georgia return form (Form 500) or on the Georgia Department of Revenue website before mailing.

Quick tips before you mail

  • Use the exact mailing address shown in the current year Georgia Form 500 instructions for your situation (refund, no tax due, or balance due).
  • If you are only mailing a payment for an e‑filed return , the Georgia DOR uses a separate PO Box (for example, P.O. Box 740323 for Form 525‑TV payment vouchers).
  • Make checks payable to Georgia Department of Revenue and include your SSN and tax year on the check.
  • Consider using a trackable mailing method, but note that certified mail does not speed up processing and can even slightly delay it.
