  • Where to download Publication 536 for 2020?

    From Lenny Miller@21:1/5 to All on Wed Aug 10 10:43:41 2022
    I did a Google search on "publication 536 for 2020". The first result
    was a link to IRS. I opened that link and got publication 536 for 2020. However, it's a draft. The word "draft" was showed on every page of the publication.

    I did a search on the IRS site for "publication 536" and got many hits.
    Yet, none of them was for 2020.

    Where can I get the final version of the publication? Thanks.

    Great! Thank you very much.

    It seems I have depended on Google too much. A Google search didn't turn
    up this file.
