Enhanced paper filing with a fill-in form

Electronic filing is the fastest, safest way to file—but if you must file a paper Resident Income Tax Return, use our enhanced fill-in Form IT-201 with 2D barcodes.

Benefits include:

  • no more handwriting—type your entries directly into our form
  • automatic calculation of your refund or tax due amount—the form does the math
  • a unique 2D barcode printed on every page that securely links your return information to your account
  • fewer errors and faster processing of your return

All taxpayers should save a copy of their return for their files. You can either print a copy of the return or save the return on your computer.

Note: the enhanced forms are not available for use with any mobile devices including phones, tablets, or iPads. Enhanced forms are not available for use with Linux operating systems.
