yo guys! I’m an international student and this is my first tax return, so sorry in advance for any dumb questions. I have to attach my 1042-S and W-2 to my paper return. First question: does the size of these forms matter? Can I just print the electronic versions I received and cut out the appropriate copies? The “detach here” and “fold here” notes on the 1042-S kinda stressed me out. Do you think the state or IRS cares about the paper size, or is it fine as long as it’s readable?

Second question: instead of folding the papers, can I use a large envelope to mail them?
