Frequently Asked Questions :
What is the due date for my Virginia income tax return?
The due date for your Virginia income tax return is May 1. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, you may file your return on the next business day.

Where should I mail my return?
The mailing address for your income tax return is found on the back cover of the Virginia Individual Income Tax Instruction booklet and on this web site at “Where to File”.
Can I pay my taxes by credit card?
Official Payments is a third party credit card vendor that The Department of Taxation has partnered with to enable customers to pay individual income taxes over the Internet (or telephone) . If you owe taxes and wish to pay by credit card, call Official Payments at 1-800-2PAY-TAX or visit their web site at officialpayments.com/.

How long am I required to keep my state tax returns?
You should keep your tax records for at least three years from the due date of the return or the date the return was filed, whichever is later. If the Internal Revenue Service requires you to keep your federal records for a longer period, keep your state records for the same period of time.
Why do I have to file a return, if I am due only a small refund?
Virginia law requires that you file an individual income tax return if your Virginia adjusted gross income is over the minimum filing threshold. Unless you file a return, we have no way of knowing whether you owe tax, which could result in you receiving a nonfiler notice.
Will I be penalized if I am due a refund, but my return is filed late?
No, there is no penalty assessed if you are due a refund, even if you file your return after the due date. However, you must file a return within three years of the original due date in order to claim your refund.
What documentation do I need to prepare my Form 760?
Generally, you will need a copy of your completed federal income tax return (Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ), any supporting federal schedules (A, C, D, E, F), your W-2 wage forms and 1099 income forms showing Virginia tax withheld, Virginia Schedule ADJ and Virginia Schedule CR. If you are claiming a credit for taxes paid to another state, you will need a copy of that state’s completed tax return.
What is the procedure for changing my address?
You may send us a letter providing your social security number, old address, new address, and your signature to: Department of Taxation, Office of Customer Services, Post Office Box 1115, Richmond, Virginia 23218-1115, or fax your request to (804) 254-6113.
If you move to a new address after filing your return, but before you receive your refund, be sure to file a change of address with your former post office so your refund or any correspondence from the department can be forwarded to you.
