The SCDOR wants to be sure we are sending your tax information to the right place and to the right person. Notify us if your name changed or you have moved or changed your address since you filed a South Carolina tax return. You can do both using our free online tax portal MyDORWAY. If you don’t have a MyDORWAY account, sign up now!
