          Background                                                                  
               On or before April 15, 2000, petitioner filed Form 1040A,              
          U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, for the taxable year 1999.  On           
          this return, petitioner listed her address as “725 First Street,            
          New London, MO 63459" (the 725 address).1                                   
               On or before April 15, 2001, petitioner filed Form 1040A for           
          the taxable year 2000.  On this return, petitioner again listed             
          her address as the 725 address.2                                            
               On September 19, 2001, respondent sent petitioner a notice             
          of deficiency.  In the notice, respondent determined a deficiency           
          in petitioner’s Federal income tax for the taxable year 1999 in             
          the amount of $3,831.  Respondent sent the notice by certified              
          mail addressed to petitioner at the 725 address.                            
               On January 22, 2002, the Court received and filed                      
          petitioner’s petition for redetermination in respect of the                 
          aforementioned notice of deficiency.  The petition was received             
          in an envelope postmarked December 19, 2001, from Woodridge,                



               1  Petitioner attached to her 1999 return a Form W-2, Wage             
          and Tax Statement, and a Form 1099-R, Distributions from                    
          Pensions, Annuities, Retirement or Profit-Sharing Plans, IRAs,              
          Insurance Contracts, etc.  Each of these two latter forms listed            
          petitioner’s address as “725 E. 1st St., New London, MO 63459”.             
          In the context of the present case, we regard this latter address           
          as the equivalent of the 725 address.                                       
               2  Petitioner attached to her 2000 return a Form W-2 and a             
          Form 1099-R.  The Form W-2 listed petitioner’s address as “725 E.           
           1st St., New London, MO 63459”.  The Form 1099-R listed                    
          petitioner’s address as a box number in New London, MO 63459.
