"Invalid Address Error Prevents Access to 2021-2024 IRS Transcripts Needed for Mortgage Application"

The error message you're seeing ("Could not open the page because the address is invalid") at sa.www4.irs.gov appears on a page listing multiple transcript options from 2021-2024, including Return Transcripts and Wage & Income information. This specific error typically occurs due to the IRS website's security architecture and how it handles PDF document requests. The issue isn't that your transcripts don't exist - they're clearly listed and available as PDF documents in English (indicated by the [PDF] EN notation). Rather, it's a technical connection problem between your browser and the IRS servers. To resolve this: 1. Clear your browser cache and cookies specifically for irs.gov domains 2. Switch to Chrome, which is better optimized for the IRS's older security certificates 3. Ensure you're using a desktop browser rather than mobile 4. Enable pop-ups for irs.gov (essential since transcripts open in new windows) 5. If using a VPN, try disabling it as the IRS site may block certain IP ranges The "sa.www4" subdomain indicates you're in the secure access portion of the IRS website, which has additional security requirements that can sometimes conflict with modern browser security settings.

Hey guys instead of playing detective with these transcripts, I've been using taxr.ai. It costs a buck but its worth every penny. You upload your transcript and it tells you exactly whats going on and when to expect your refund. https://taxr.ai
