When to use Missouri 1040-V payment voucher and where to send it
There is some confusion about the use of the MO-1040V voucher and the correct "send to" address. The MO-1040V is to be used only for electronically filed returns with a balance due that is not paid via EFT. The MO-1040V should never be sent along with a paper-filed return. Drake allows preparers to force print these forms, but the state requests that they not be submitted with the return. Returns that will be paper-filed will contain a 2D barcode. This is able to be scanned by the DOR to obtain details from the return, including balance due; thus, the voucher is not necessary.
The MO-1040V voucher and the payment should be sent to:
Missouri Department of Revenue
P.O. Box 371
Jefferson City, MO 65105-0371.
Paper-filed returns with a 2D barcode are sent to P.O. Box 3370.
Important There is a different address for returns without a 2D barcode, but Drake does not produce paper returns without a 2D barcode. All forms produced by Drake are approved by the Missouri DOR and have the correct address.
See the MO 1040-V Instructions for details.
