My wife received an insurance company death benefit lump sum annuity check on 12/30/19 that was dated 12/17/19 and has yet to be cashed. Do we need to pay taxes for this on our 2019 tax return, and if so, how do we avoid an underpayment penalty since federal & state taxes were not deducted from it?

I need to overnight documents to the IRS in Memphis, TN, but the address I have does not include a P.O. Box. The post office says they cannot overnight to an address without a P.O. Box. Do you know an alternative address or P.O. Box I can use for this purpose?

I am about to purchase foreign currency, the Iraqi dinar, as an investment for a future revaluation. I plan to set up a trust or IRA-type account to hold it in. My question is whether the dinar needs to be purchased by/within the trust or account to minimize gains taxes when the currency revalues. Additionally, I am interested in the best way to minimize taxes over a period of time and the appropriate structure for managing and investing the proceeds from the dinar.
