Form 1040 is used by U.S. taxpayers to file an annual income tax return. For Tax Year 2018, you will no longer use Form 1040-A or Form 1040-EZ, but instead will use the redesigned Form 1040.

If you cannot use Form 1040EZ or Form 1040A, you must use Form 1040 which can include all types of income, deductions, and credits. It may be to your advantage to file a Form 1040 even if you qualify for a different form because it allows you to take itemized deductions, adjustments to income, and credits.

Form 1040EZ is, not surprisingly, the easiest to fill out. 1040A is longer and a bit more complex, and Form 1040 is the most detailed and challenging of the lot. While anyone can file Form 1040, you must meet certain requirements to use the shorter 1040EZ or 1040A forms.

Although it's longer than Form 1040EZ, Form 1040A is shorter than the 1040 tax form, and it allows you to claim certain adjustments not available using Form 1040EZ. For example, Form 1040A can be used to file as head of household, which is more advantageous than a filing status of single.

Key Point: The due date for your 2018 Form 1040 is April 15, 2019, unless you live in Maine or Massachusetts, in which case your deadline is April 17, 2019. You can automatically extend your return to Oct. 15, 2019 by filing Form 4868 with the IRS on or before the applicable deadline.

The Treasury Department and the IRS are working to incorporate changes into the Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate, for 2020. The current 2019 version of the Form W-4 is similar to last year's 2018 version.

The tax year you are filing for is usually the year prior to the year taxes are actually filed, which makes sense because the government needs to know what you earned between January 1 and December 31 on your tax return. For example, taxes prepared in March of 2019 would be for the tax year 2018.

During the tax filing season, many libraries and post offices offer free tax forms to taxpayers. Some libraries also have copies of commonly requested publications. Many large grocery stores, copy centers and office supply stores have forms you can photocopy or print from a CD.

If you need to file an individual federal tax return, you'll use IRS Form 1040, 1040EZ or 1040A.

This new law consolidated the forms 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ into a single redesigned Form 1040 that all filers can use. For your 2018 taxes, which you file in early 2019, you will use this new 1040. That means you can no longer use the 1040EZ unless you are filing a return for tax year 2017 or earlier.

What is the IRS 1040EZ Form? The simplest of the three tax forms you can use to file your federal income taxes is the IRS 1040EZ form. For tax years beginning 2018 (the tax return you submit in 2019), the 1040A and EZ forms are no longer available. They have been replaced with a new, single 1040 form.

Form 1040A is used by U.S. taxpayers to file an annual income tax return. For Tax year 2018, you will no longer use Form 1040-A, but instead use the redesigned Form 1040.

In general, you are eligible to file a 1040A or 1040EZ if you: Make less than $100,000 per year. Do not itemize deductions. Do not receive income from your own business or farm.

Form 1040EZ Also, you can't use 1040EZ if you have any income from self-employment, alimony, dividends or capital gains. You can use Form 1040EZ if all of the following apply: You are filing as single or married filing jointly. Your taxable income is less than $100,000.
