If you've already filed, then that address will be the address to which IRS sends a refund check, if that's how you requested your refund.  If you requested Direct Deposit, then the address error won't matter.

Once you receive your refund, you should file a change of address Form 8822 with IRS to change it back.

Here's the link to the IRS web page for change of address:  https://www.irs.gov/help-resources/tools-faqs/faqs-for-individuals/frequently-asked-tax-questions-an...

If you haven't filed yet, then you can log into your tax return, click on the Personal Info tab, and make the correction.
