Tax Forms


  1. COVID-19 Library Update 

2020 Tax Form Update: 2/16/2021

This tax season (2020 filing year), the library is providing free print copies of IRS 1040, 1040-SR, and 1040-SP forms and instructions while supplies last. (See below for more info). These forms and instructions  can be requested using our curbside pickup service.  

Federal Tax Forms

The IRS's Tax Form Outlets Program, which oversees tax form distribution through public libraries (like MRSPL), offers a limited number of printed forms and publications for free distribution to the public during tax season.

IRS Forms and Instruction Available Free in the LIbrary


For the 2021 tax season (covering the 2020 filing year), the following items will be available (while supplies last) for free distribution here in the library:

When Will the Free Print Forms Be Available?

The IRS usually does not ship forms and publications to us until the middle or end of January, sometimes later. We will post on this page when the forms have been received and are available for the public to take. 



Additional Forms and Publications


Individuals may also obtain free copies of forms, instructions, and publications directly from the IRS:

  • www.irs.gov (view/download tax products online)
  • www.irs.gov/orderforms (request tax products online to be delivered by mail)
  • 1-800-829-3676 (request tax products by phone to be delivered by mail)

Virginia Tax Forms

The Commonwealth of Virginia stopped distributing free state tax products through public libraries several years ago. As a result, Mary Riley Styles Public Library is not able to provide free copies of Virginia tax forms and publications. 

Individuals may obtain free copies of forms, instructions, and publications directly from the state:

    • www.tax.virginia.gov (view/download tax forms and instructions online)
    • 1-804-367-8031 (request individual tax forms and instructions by phone to be delivered by mail)
