Per the IRS, these are the documents you will need to bring:

• Social Security numbers of everyone listed on the tax return. 
• Bank account and routing numbers. People will need these for direct deposit refunds. Direct deposit is the fastest way for taxpayers to get their money and avoids a check getting lost, stolen, or returned to the IRS as undeliverable. 
  • If you don't have a bank account, learn how to open an account at an FDIC-insured bank or through the National Credit Union Locator Tool. Veterans can access the Veterans Benefits Banking Program.
• Forms W-2 from employer(s).
• Forms 1099 from banks, issuing agencies, and other payers, including unemployment compensation, dividends, and distributions from a pension, annuity, or retirement plan.
• Form 1099-K, 1099-MISC, W-2 or other income statement for workers in the gig economy.
• Form 1099-INT for interest received.
• Other income documents and records of virtual currency transactions.
• Form 1095-A, Health Insurance Marketplace Statement. Taxpayers will need this form to reconcile advance payments or claim the premium tax credit.
• Letter 6419, 2023 Total Advance Child Tax Credit Payments, to reconcile advance child tax credit payments.

Per the Virginia Tax website, the following is needed to file your Virginia Income Taxes:

• All W-2s, 1099s, and other withholding information before filing your return. Don't rely on year-end pay stub information, as it may not match what your employer reports. 
• Include your Virginia driver's license or Virginia identification card number on your return. Returns that don't have a driver's license or ID card number won't be rejected, but providing the information helps the Virginia Department of Taxation process returns more quickly. 
• If you were issued a Virginia Tax personal identification number (PIN), you must provide the PIN on your return. Remember that even if you provide your PIN, the Virginia Department of Taxation systems could stop your return for other reasons. 
• Provide all necessary information on your return and attach all required documents and schedules. 
• Be sure the spelling of your name(s), Social Security number(s), and all calculations are correct. 
• If you moved since you filed your last return, use your current address.
