Instructions for the SVOG-Specific Version of IRS Form 4506-T (Updated 5/11/21)
The SBA requires applicants to complete an SVOG-specific version of IRS Form 4506-T as part of the
application submission.
The 4506-T is a tax form that authorizes the IRS to provide Federal income tax information directly to
the SBA. This form must be completed accurately for you to receive SVOG funding. You must use the
SVOG-specific version of IRS Form 4506T located at https://www.sba.gov/document/sba-form-
shuttered-venue-operators-grant-4506t-form
Important Note: Applicants from Puerto Rico and other U.S. territories will need to submit further
documentation (in addition to the SVOG-specific version of IRS Form 4506-T) upon application
submission.
Step 1
Go to SVOG-specific version of IRS Form 4506T to download the SVOG-specific version of IRS Form
4506-T as a fillable PDF.
*Special Note There are many versions of the 4506-T available on the IRS website. The only form the
SBA can accept is the SVOG-specific version of IRS Form 4506-T. The correct form contains the
acronym SVOG in the header.
Step 2 – Line 1a
Enter your Name on line 1a. This must be the same name that you entered on your 2019 tax return.
Step 3 – Line 1b
Enter the Corporation EIN# or Individual SSN# that you entered on your 2019 tax return. This EIN must
also match the EIN you used for your SVOG application.
Step 4 – Lines 2a and 2b
Only fill out lines 2a and 2b if in 2019 you filed a 1040 and you were married filing jointly. If you filed
any other tax form, or if you filed a 1040 but were not married filing jointly, leave lines 2a and 2b blank.
Step 5 – Lines 3 and 4
Enter your current address on line 3. If your name is different now than the name you used on your
2019 tax return, enter your current name as well.
Enter your previous address on line 4 only if it is different than the current address on line 3. If your
current address is the same as it was when you filed your 2019 tax returns, leave line 4 blank.
Step 6 – Line 5a (No Action)
Do not alter line 5a. It is prefilled with the correct information.
Step 7 – Line 5b
Enter your Customer file number in line 5b. Your Customer file number will be displayed on the
Required Documents Step. Do NOT include the “DA-“ at the beginning. Use only the numeric part of
the number.
Step 8 – Line 6
On line 6, enter the tax form you used when filing your 2019 business federal income tax return. For
example, you may have filed a form 1040, 1065, 1120, 1120-S, 990, or 990-EZ. Only enter one tax form
type. Do NOT include any other numbers or words. For example, do not include “Schedule C” or any
other information.
If this request is for an individual, enter 1040. If this request is for a business, please enter the business
tax return you filed for the year (not quarterly returns).
For those using 1120-S, or 990-EZ, you must include the alphabetic identifier following the form
number.
