Depending on the state(s) you live and work in, it’s possible that state-specific signature documents are required for you to e-file with that state. If you’re using our online tax prep product, you might be wondering, “How do I display my state signature document?” We can help!

To display your state signature document, follow the steps below:

  1. Check the status of your return online.
  2. Choose Print and Save.
  3. Find the state signature form / Form 8453

If you need additional H&R Block online support, visit the Help Center to find technical help.

More About Form 8453

Form 8453: U.S. Individual Income Tax Transmittal for an IRS e-file Return is the form used to send any required paper forms or supporting documentation related to the checkboxes on the front of the form.

As the form instructions note, you shouldn’t attach any form or document that’s not shown on the front of the form. If you’re required to mail in any documentation not listed on Form 8453, you can’t e-file your return.
