Form 1040 is the main U.S. individual income-tax return. It brings together income, adjustments, deductions, tax, credits and payments. Formz fills supported fields from values you supply; preparing this PDF does not calculate or file a complete tax return. ## Records to gather - Taxpayer/spouse identities, filing-status decisions and dependent records - W-2, 1099 and other income records for the chosen tax year - Completed schedules, deduction/credit determinations and calculated tax totals - Withholding, estimated payments, refund instructions and required attachments ## Fields you will work through The guided editor groups the supported fields into practical steps. The available fields follow the chosen revision. Taxpayer and filing statusYour first name and middle initial · Your last name · Your social security number Mailing addressStreet address · Apartment · City, town or post office Dependent 1First name · Last name · Social security number Dependent 2First name · Last name · Social security number Dependent 3First name · Last name · Social security number ## Check before using your PDF - Choose the year you are reporting, not simply the current calendar year. - Reconcile values carried from schedules and verify eligibility, tax calculations, signatures and attachments outside the PDF-entry workflow. ## After you prepare the document Review the full return package and use an approved filing method separately. Do not assume a prepared main form includes every required schedule. ## Common questions Will Formz prepare my taxes from my W-2? Formz places supplied values in the supported PDF and checks supported field relationships. It does not infer all income, deductions, credits or tax from uploaded records, and it does not submit a return. Which Form 1040 revision does Formz support? The current catalog lists 2020–2025. Select an available year inside the editor where offered and compare that PDF with the reporting period you need. A supported historical revision is not a claim that it is suitable for a current-year obligation. Does downloading Form 1040 complete filing? No. Formz prepares the supported PDF from your supplied entries. You must review signatures, attachments, copy labels and the applicable delivery or filing method separately. It does not submit government forms or provide filing acceptance. ## Related forms and guides [Individual income-tax forms and schedules](/categories/individual-tax.md)[Schedule 1 Schedule 1 adds specified income and adjustments to an individual return.](/forms/schedule-1.md)[Schedule C Schedule C reports profit or loss from a sole-proprietor business.](/forms/schedule-c.md)[Form 1040-ES Form 1040-ES includes materials for estimating individual tax and making estimated payments.](/forms/1040-es.md)[Form 4868 Form 4868 requests an extension to file an individual income-tax return.](/forms/4868.md)[Schedule C records checklist](/guides/schedule-c-records-checklist.md)[A tax filing extension is different from extra time to pay](/guides/tax-extension-vs-payment.md) ## Official sources Source links reviewed October 4, 2026.
