Tax Court Again Will No Longer Accept Hand-Delivered Docs

The U.S. Tax Court will again stop accepting hand-delivered mail starting Friday, reverting to a policy it used from March through July to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus, the court said on Thursday.

The Tax Court will stop its in-person acceptance of hand-delivered mail on Friday and until further notice, the court said in a statement. Electronic filing is still available, and the court will continue to accept mail, it said.

The Tax Court began accepting hand-delivered filings and other documents in July after having stopped the practice in March as a response to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
