Once the IVES application and registration process are completed, your company is ready to begin taking advantage of the electronic delivery service offered under the IVES program. Step 1: On Line 5a (designation of a third party to whom the transcript is to be delivered) insert your company's name, address, and the delegate's user-ID for secure mailbox delivery. Note: Line 5a must be completed prior to a taxpayer providing consent and signing the Form. Any loan or order number that you wish to appear in the subject line of your mail delivery should be written on the top right-hand corner of the Form 4506-C, IVES Request for Transcript of Tax Return PDF. You may only place one alpha-numeric number in the upper right-hand corner. This number can’t be more than 10 characters long and must not contain any part of a taxpayer identification number (SSN or EIN). The taxpayer must only sign and date once the Form 4506-C is completely filled out, which would include Line 5a information. Step 2: Fax the completed Form 4506-C to your assigned IVES unit.
