Accessible formats available for most IRS products through the IRS Alternative Media Center


The IRS Alternative Media Center provides content in a variety of formats to accommodate taxpayers with different communication needs.

The AMC provides hundreds of tax forms and publications in alternative formats, including:

• Text only.
• Braille-ready files.
• Browser-friendly HTML.
• Accessible PDF.
• Large print PDF.

The Alternative Media Center makes IRS resources as accessible as possible, but not every product is available in all formats. Large print and accessible PDF products are available in a variety of languages, including English and Spanish. Right now, Braille and text are available only in English and Spanish.

Get accessible tax products
Anyone who needs accessible tax forms, instructions and publications can download them from the Accessible IRS tax products page on IRS.gov or request paper copies by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676).

Request tax notices in accessible formats
Taxpayers can log in to their IRS Online Account and choose to receive their IRS written communications like notices in an accessible format such as Braille, large print, audio or electronic formats.

Taxpayers who can't access or don't have an Online Account can instead complete Form 9000, Alternative Media Preference. They can submit the completed Form 9000 with their federal tax return, or they can mail it directly to the Alternative Media Center at:

Internal Revenue Service
Alternative Media Center
400 N. 8th St., Room G39
Richmond, VA 23219

If mailing the form is not an option, the taxpayer can call 800-829-1040.

Once a taxpayer makes the election, they will receive all future notices in their preferred format.

Request tax info in another language
Taxpayers can complete Form 1040, Schedule LEP, to request written communications in a language other than English.

The IRS is here to help
The IRS Accessibility Helpline at 833-690-0598 can answer questions related to accessibility services and alternative media formats. The Accessibility Helpline does not have access to taxpayer IRS accounts. For assistance with matters regarding tax law, refunds or other account related issues, people can visit the Let Us Help You page on IRS.gov.
