Inmate, through his sister, submitted pre-filing information and tax documents to file 2017 and 2018 tax returns.
Is there a way to file the tax return without a POA? If a POA is required, can the return be filed simultaneously with the POA attached or POA must be processed and approved by IRS before filing?
Since 2017 must be paper-filed, can the sister cite incarceration as a reason other than “disease or injury or continuous absence” to get authority to sign return?
Thanks

He's in maximum security with no visitors or mail allowed? Legal mail is always allowed; has the sister asked his lawyer for help (even if a public defender)? If he is incarcerated because of a crime with financial implications -- for example, selling drugs -- are you and the sister sure you want to sign the returns?

I have just had the person wanting to file inmates return to visit them, and have them sign, or mail the return to them to sign

Thanks Bob! No drugs, just a petty crime but I agree mailing the return to him will be best option thereto.
