    DCN

    Declaration Control Number (DCN) to the electronic portion of your income tax return.

    If you are filing your tax return using an online provider, mail Form 8453 to the

    IRS within 3 business days after you have received acknowledgment from

    your intermediate service provider and/or transmitter that the IRS has accepted

    your electronically filed tax return. If you do not receive an acknowledgement,

    you must contact your intermediate service provider and/or transmitter.

    Line Instructions

    Declaration control number (DCN).

    The DCN is a 14-digit number assigned to each tax return. It should be included

    in your acknowledgement message. Clearly print or type the DCN in the top

    left corner of each Form 8453 after the IRS has acknowledged receipt of the

    electronic tax return. The first two digits are the file identification number and are

    always “00.” The next six digits are the electronic filer identification number

    (EFIN). The next five digits are the batch number and the serial number. The last

    digit is the year digit (for returns filed in 2011, the year digit is “1”).

    You may need to take your information to a volunteer site in you area for some free face to face assistance and see if they can assist you with this matter or even go to your local IRS office and ask some one at the TAC if they can assist you with this matter.

    Go to the www.irs.gov website and at the top of the page above search box choose Contact IRS

    Or use the search box for Contact Your Local IRS Office

    IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers for when you believe your issue is best handled face-to-face. Hours of service and other local information is provided on a per state basis.
