Get Me Rew-1-1040 2022

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
