In the year of 2007 I lived in a Kansas, however in the middle of that year I moved back to my hometown in Oklahoma. When I moved back I lived with a family member. I do work and I am wondering if I can put the address that I lived in Kansas before I moved back home to Oklahoma. The family member I live with is using his own household to file his own taxes. Can I use the address in Kansas, or will it raise a red flag for the IRS, b/c I live and work in Oklahoma and I put down a Kansas address? Or does it not matter at all, as long as I file faithfully?

Always use your current address on your tax return. Using your previous address means you won't get any refunds due to you, as they will be mailed to your previous address.
People move all the time - this is not one of the "red flag" items.

If you use the Kansas address, that's where any refund or other correspondence will be sent. Does that seem smart??
You must use your current address any time you file a tax return so that the tax authorities know where to contact you if there are any questions about your return. If the can't get hold of you they'll go ahead and act anyway, probably in a manner that isn't best for YOUR interests.

Put down the address where you live at the time you file. It won't raise any red flags. That's where they'd send any future paperwork.
