If you need paper state tax forms, you have three options:
Print your forms from the Indiana DoR website. If you don't have a printer, you can use ours during walk-in hours, or use print.lcplin.org for curbside pickup. Printing costs 5 cents per page.
- We will print a packet of the most common forms for you. You can purchase a packet at the front desk. Packets will cost $1 for forms only, $4 for instruction booklets only, or $5 for both.
- Hard copies of state tax forms may also be available at the Indiana Dept. of Revenue office located at 1411 E. 85th Ave, Merrillville, IN 46410.
