8821 (Tax Information Authorization) have changed. Unfortunately, the
forms 2848 and 8821 and brochures such as Publication 4245 have not been updated

The new numbers are
The new numbers are
Memphis 855-214-7519
Ogden 855-214-7522
Philadelphia remains the same (only for taxpayers abroad)
267-941-1017
FYI, 855 is a new toll-free area code (since 2010. Other toll free area codes
in use are 800, 866, 877 and 888).
