Major Changes to the 2007 Instructions to Form 1040EZ
General Changes
All years and line references are updated appropriately. Filing deadlines have
been updated. Pages references have not been updated.
Special Hurricane Katrina rules have been deleted.
A new front cover has been designed
There will not be a Commissioner’s message this year.
A table of contents has been added. Some pages that were previously near the
front of the booklet have been moved to after the line-by-line instructions. These
are the pages that cover the IRS service standards, the Taxpayer Advocate
Service, access to tax help and forms, refund information, calling the IRS, and
TeleTax information and topics. This was done to get the information necessary
to complete Form 1040EZ at the front of the instructions. This change was based
on a best practices review of the 1040 Instructions by Kleinmann
Communications Group.

Use IRS e-file if you don’t qualify for
Free File. There are three ways:
➜ Use a tax professional.
Make Under $54,000? e-file For Free!
Many taxpayers rely on tax professionals to
handle their returns and most tax professionals
can e-file your return & you just have to be sure
to ask.
Also, tax professionals can charge a fee for IRS
e-file. Fees can vary depending on the
professional and specific services rendered, so
be sure to discuss this upfront.
If your 2007 adjusted gross income was $54,000 or
less, you’re one of the 95+ million taxpayers who are
eligible for Free File. Free File, a service offered by
the IRS in partnership with the Free File Alliance, a
group of tax preparation software companies, is:
● Fast, easy and safe to use
➜ Use a computer.
● Available in English and Spanish
You can easily electronically prepare and e-file
your own tax return. To do so, you’ll need:
● A computer with Internet access, and
● IRS-approved tax preparation software which
is available via the Internet for online use, for
download from the Internet, and in retail
stores for offline use. Visit www.irs.gov/efile
for details.
● Accessible online 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week (You will need internet access to Free
File. Also, Free File can only be accessed by
going through the www.irs.gov website —
even if you used Free File in previous years.)
● Absolutely FREE. No hidden fees
➜ Use a volunteer.
The VITA Program offers free tax help for low to
moderate income taxpayers. The Tax Counseling
for the Elderly (TCE) Program provides free tax
help to people age 60 and older.
If you don’t qualify for Free File, then you may
want to check out the Partners Page on
www.irs.gov for low-cost e-file options.
e-file! It’s Never Been Easier.
It’s easy to see why more than 60% of taxpayers e-file their tax returns electronically: it’s faster, easier and more
convenient than paper filing. e-filing also reduces the chance of making mistakes. Plus, if your 2007 adjusted
grossincome was $54,000 or less, you can e-file for FREE by using Free File at www.irs.gov!
e-file and Get the Benefits
●
●

●
●
●
A faster refund than by paper filingœ in as little as 10 days with Direct
Deposit
An e-mailed proof of receipt within 48 hours after the IRS receives your
return which you can’t get with paper filing
Reduced chance of making mistakes since IRS e-file software checks
your return. In fact, e-filed returns have a 1% or less error rate, compared
to 20% with paper returns. (Please note that e-filing your tax returns does
not impact or change the chance of an audit.)
Save time by preparing and e-filing federal and state returns together
You can electronically sign your return with a secure, self-selected PIN
number
If you owe, you can authorize an electronic funds withdrawal or pay by
credit card. You can also file a return early and pay the amount you owe
later
Help the environment, use less paper and save taxpayer money — it
costs less to process an e-filed return than a paper return
Totally Safe and Secure
More than half a billion federal tax returns have been e-filed! The IRS uses the
most secure technology available to safeguard your personal information. So you
can rest assured that when you e-file, your information will be safe.
Visit: www.irs.gov/efile for the latest information.
You can accomplish many things electronically within www.irs.gov. The Electronic IRS is a gateway to the many
IRS electronic options and its available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Should you choose to file a paper return,
you’ll findinformation, resources and all of the forms ready to download.

Before You Fill In Form 1040EZ
TIP
For details on these and other changes for 2007 and
2008, see Pub. 553.
What’s New for 2007
Credit for Federal Telephone Excise Tax
The credit for federal telephone excise tax was only available on
your 2006 return. If you did not request this credit on your 2006
return, file Form 1040X to amend your 2006 return.
What’s New for 2008
Earned Income Credit (EIC)
Earned Income Credit (EIC)
You may be able to take the EIC if you earned less than $12,590
($14,590 if married filing jointly). See the instructions for lines 8a
and 8b that begin on page 13.
You may be able to take the EIC if you earned less than $xx,xxx
($xx,xxx if married filing jointly).
The election to include nontaxable combat pay in earned income
for the EIC expired and will not apply for 2008.
Mailing Your Return
You may be mailing your return to a different address this year
because the IRS has changed the filing location for several areas. If
you received an envelope with your tax package, please use it. Otherwise, see Where Do You File? on the back cover.
Filing Requirements
These rules apply to all U.S. citizens, regardless of where they live, and resident aliens.
Do You Have To File?
Were you (or your spouse if filing a joint return) age 65 or older at
the end of 2007? If you were born on January 1, 1943, you are
considered to be age 65 at the end of 2007.
❏ Yes. Use TeleTax topic 351 (see page 6) to find out if you
must file a return. If you do, you must use Form
1040A or 1040.
❏ No. Use Chart A, B, or C on page 9 to see if you must file a
return.
TIP
Even if you do not otherwise have to file a return, you
should file one to get a refund of any federal income tax
withheld. You should also file if you are eligible for the
earned income credit.
Have you tried IRS e-file? It’s the fastest way to get
your refund and it’s free if you are eligible. Visit
www.irs.gov for details.
Exception for children under age 18. If you are planning to file a
tax return for your child who was under age 18 at the end of 2007
and certain other conditions apply, you can elect to include your
child’s income on your return. But you must use Form 1040 and
Form 8814 to do so. If you make this election, your child does not
have to file a return. For details, use TeleTax topic 553 (see page 6)
or see Form 8814.
A child born on January 1, 1990, is considered to be age 18 at the
end of 2007. Do not use Form 8814 for such a child.
Resident aliens. These rules also apply if you were a resident alien.
Also, you may qualify for certain tax treaty benefits. See Pub. 519
for details.
Nonresident aliens and dual-status aliens. These rules also apply if
you were a nonresident alien or dual-status alien and both of the
following apply.
• You were married to a U.S. citizen or resident at the end of
2007.
• You elected to be taxed as a resident alien.
See Pub. 519 for details.
Specific rules apply to determine if you are a resident
alien, nonresident alien, or dual-status alien. Most nonresident aliens and dual-status aliens have different filCAUTION
ing requirements and may have to file Form 1040NR or
Form 1040NR-EZ. Pub. 519 discusses these requirements and other
!
information to help aliens comply with U.S. tax law, including tax
treaty benefits, and special rules for students and scholars.
When Should You File?
File Form 1040EZ by April 15, 2008. If you file after this date, you
may have to pay interest and penalties. See below.
If you were serving in, or in support of, the U.S. Armed
Forces in a designated combat zone, qualified hazardous
duty area, or a contingency operation (for example, you
were in the Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo, or Persian
Gulf area), see Pub. 3.
TIP
What if You Cannot File on Time?
You can get an automatic 6-month extension if, no later than the
date your return is due, you file Form 4868. For details, see Form
4868.
However, even if you get an extension, the tax you owe is still
due April 15, 2008. If you make a payment with your extension
request, see the instructions for line 9 on page 18.
What if You File or Pay Late?
The IRS can charge you interest and penalties on the amount you
owe.
If you file late, the penalty is usually 5% of the amount due for
each month or part of a month your return is late, unless you have a
reasonable explanation. If you do, attach it to your return. The penalty can be as much as 25% of the tax due. The penalty is 15% per
month, up to a maximum of 75%, if the failure to file is fraudulent.
We will charge you interest on the penalty from the due date of the
return (including extensions). If your return is more than 60 days
late, the minimum penalty will be $100 or the amount of any tax
you owe, whichever is smaller.
If you pay your taxes late, the penalty is usually 1⁄2 of 1% of the
unpaid amount for each month or part of a month the tax is not paid.
The penalty can be as much as 25% of the unpaid amount. It applies
to any unpaid tax on the return.
Are There Other Penalties?
Yes. Other penalties can be imposed for negligence, substantial understatement of tax, reportable transaction understatements, fraud,
- 5 -

10:35 - 30-JUN-2007
The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing.
and filing an erroneous claim for a refund or credit. We will charge
you interest on these penalties from the due date of the return (including extensions). Criminal penalties may be imposed for willful
failure to file, tax evasion, or making a false statement. See Pub. 17
for details.
In addition to any other penalties, the law imposes a penalty of
$5,000 for filing a frivolous return. A frivolous return is one that
does not contain information needed to figure the correct tax or
shows a substantially incorrect tax, because you take a frivolous
position or desire to delay or interfere with the tax laws. This includes altering or striking out the preprinted language above the
space where you sign.
Where Do You File?
See the back cover.
Private delivery services. You can use certain private delivery
services designated by the IRS to meet the “timely mailing as
timely filing/paying” rule for tax returns and payments. These private delivery services include only the following.
• DHL Express (DHL): DHL Same Day Service, DHL Next
Day 10:30 am, DHL Next Day 12:00 pm, DHL Next Day 3:00 pm,
and DHL 2nd Day Service.
• Federal Express (FedEx): FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx
Standard Overnight, FedEx 2Day, FedEx International Priority, and
FedEx International First.
• United Parcel Service (UPS): UPS Next Day Air, UPS Next
Day Air Saver, UPS 2nd Day Air, UPS 2nd Day Air A.M., UPS
Worldwide Express Plus, and UPS Worldwide Express.
The private delivery service can tell you how to get written proof
of the mailing date.
Who Can Use Form 1040EZ?
You can use Form 1040EZ if all of the following apply.
• Your filing status is single or married filing jointly (see page
11). If you were a nonresident alien at any time in 2007, see Nonresident aliens on page 11.
• You do not claim any dependents.
• You do not claim any adjustments to income. Use TeleTax
topics 451-453 and 455-458 (see page 6).
• The only tax credit you can claim is the earned income credit.
Use TeleTax topics 601-608 and 610 (see page 6).
• You (and your spouse if filing a joint return) were under age
65 and not blind at the end of 2007. If you were born on January 1,
1943, you are considered to be age 65 at the end of 2007 and cannot
use Form 1040EZ.
• Your taxable income (line 6 of Form 1040EZ) is less than
$100,000.
• You had only wages, salaries, tips, taxable scholarship or fellowship grants, unemployment compensation, or Alaska Permanent
Fund dividends, and your taxable interest was not over $1,500.
• You did not receive any advance earned income credit payments.
• You do not owe any household employment taxes on wages
you paid to a household employee. To find out who owes these
taxes, use TeleTax topic 756 (see page 6).
• You are not a debtor in a chapter 11 bankruptcy case filed after
October 16, 2005.
If you do not meet all of the requirements, you must use Form
1040A or 1040. Use TeleTax topic 352 (see page 6) to find out
which form to use.
Even if you can use Form 1040EZ, it may benefit you to use
Form 1040A or 1040 instead. For example, you can claim the head
of household filing status (which usually results in a lower tax than
single) only on Form 1040A or 1040. Use TeleTax topic 353 (see
page 6). Also, you can itemize deductions only on Form 1040. It
would benefit you to itemize deductions if they total more than your
standard deduction, which is $5,350 for most single people and
$10,700 for most married people filing a joint return. Use TeleTax
topic 501 (see page 6). But if someone can claim you (or your
spouse if married) as a dependent, your standard deduction is the
amount entered on line E of the worksheet on page 2 of Form
1040EZ.
Nonresident aliens. If you were a nonresident alien at any time in
2007, your filing status must be married filing jointly to use Form
1040EZ. If your filing status is not married filing jointly, you may
have to use Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ. Specific rules apply to
determine if you were a nonresident or resident alien. See Pub. 519
for details, including the rules for students and scholars who are
aliens.
Single
You can use this filing status if any of the following was true on
December 31, 2007.
• You were never married.
• You were legally separated, according to your state law, under
a decree of divorce or separate maintenance.
• You were widowed before January 1, 2007, and did not remarry in 2007.
Married Filing Jointly
You can use this filing status if any of the following apply.
• You were married at the end of 2007, even if you did not live
with your spouse at the end of 2007.
• Your spouse died in 2007 and you did not remarry in 2007.
• You were married at the end of 2007, and your spouse died in
2008 before filing a 2007 return.
For federal tax purposes, a marriage means only a legal union
between a man and a woman as husband and wife. A husband and
wife filing jointly report their combined income and deduct their
combined allowable expenses on one return. A husband and wife
can file a joint return even if only one had income or if they did not
live together all year. However, both persons must sign the return.
Once you file a joint return, you cannot choose to file separate returns for that year after the due date of the return.
Joint and several tax liability. If you file a joint return, both you
and your spouse are generally responsible for the tax and any interest or penalties due on the return. This means that if one spouse
does not pay the tax due, the other may have to. However, see Innocent spouse relief on page 21.

eligible to use free online commercial tax preparation software to file your
federal income tax return. Visit www.irs.gov/efile for details.
Name Change
Name and Address
Use the Peel-Off Label
Using your peel-off name and address label on the back of this
booklet will speed the processing of your return. It also prevents
common errors that can delay refunds or result in unnecessary
notices. Put the label on your return after you have finished it. Cross
out any incorrect information and print the correct information. Add
any missing items, such as your apartment number.
If you changed your name because of marriage, divorce, etc., be
sure to report the change to your local Social Security Administration office before you file your return. This prevents delays in
processing your return and issuing refunds. It also safeguards your
future social security benefits. If you received a peel-off label, cross
out your former name and print your new name.
What if You Do Not Have a Label?
Print the information in the spaces provided.
Address Change
If the address on your peel-off label is not your current address,
cross out your old address and print your new address. If you plan to
move after filing your return, use Form 8822 to notify the IRS of
your new address.
Need more information or forms? See page 5.

TIP
If you filed a joint return for 2006 and you are filing a

P.O. Box
Refunds of State or Local Income Taxes
Enter your P.O. box number only if your post office does not deliver
mail to your home.
If you received a refund, credit, or offset of state or local income
taxes in 2007, you may receive a Form 1099-G.
Foreign Address
For the year the tax was paid to the state or other taxing authority, did you file Form 1040EZ or 1040A?
Print the information in the following order: City, province or state,
and country. Follow the country’s practice for entering the postal
code. Do not abbreviate the country name.
❏ Yes. None of your refund is taxable.
❏ No. You may have to report part or all of the refund as
income on Form 1040 for 2007. For details, use
TeleTax topic 405 (see page 6).
Social Security Number (SSN)
An incorrect or missing SSN can increase your tax or reduce your
refund. To apply for an SSN, fill in Form SS-5 and return it to the
Social Security Administration (SSA). You can get Form SS-5
online at www.socialsecurity.gov, from your local SSA office, or
by calling the SSA at 1-800-772-1213. It usually takes about 2
weeks to get an SSN once the SSA has all the evidence and information it needs.
Social Security Benefits
You should receive a Form SSA-1099 or Form RRB-1099. These
forms will show the total social security and equivalent railroad
retirement benefits paid to you in 2007 and the amount of any
benefits you repaid in 2007. Use the worksheet below to see if any
of your benefits are taxable. If they are, you must use Form 1040A
or 1040. For more details, see Pub. 915.
Check that your SSN on your Forms W-2 and 1099 agrees with
your social security card. If not, see page 21 for more details.
IRS individual taxpayer identification numbers (ITINs) for aliens.
If you are a nonresident or resident alien and you do not have and
are not eligible to get an SSN, you must apply for an ITIN. For
details on how to do so, see Form W-7 and its instructions. It
usually takes about 4 – 6 weeks to get an ITIN.
If you already have an ITIN, enter it wherever your SSN is
requested on your tax return.
!
CAUTION
An ITIN is for tax use only. It does not entitle you to
social security benefits or change your employment or
immigration status under U.S. law.
Nonresident alien spouse. If your spouse is a nonresident alien, he
or she must have either an SSN or an ITIN.
Presidential Election Campaign
Fund
This fund helps pay for Presidential election campaigns. The fund
reduces candidates’ dependence on large contributions from individuals and groups and places candidates on an equal financial
footing in the general election. If you want $3 to go to this fund,
check the box. If you are filing a joint return, your spouse may also
have $3 go to the fund. If you check a box, your tax or refund will
not change.
Line 1
Wages, Salaries, and Tips
Enter the total of your wages, salaries, and tips. If a joint return, also
include your spouse’s income. For most people, the amount to enter
on this line should be shown on their Form(s) W-2 in box 1. But the
following types of income also must be included in the total on
line 1.
• Wages received as a household employee for which you did
not receive a Form W-2 because your employer paid you less than
$1,500 in 2007. Also, enter “HSH” and the amount not reported on
a Form W-2 in the space to the left of line 1.
• Tip income you did not report to your employer. But you must
use Form 1040 and Form 4137 if: (a) you received tips of $20 or
more in any month and did not report the full amount to your
employer, or (b) your Form(s) W-2 show allocated tips that you
must report as income. You must report the allocated tips shown on
your Form(s) W-2 unless you can prove that you received less.
Allocated tips should be shown on your Form(s) W-2 in box 8.
They are not included as income in box 1. See Form 4137 and Pub.
531 for more details.
• Scholarship and fellowship grants not reported on a Form
W-2. Also, enter “SCH” and the amount in the space to the left of
line 1. However, if you were a degree candidate, include on line 1
only the amounts you used for expenses other than tuition and
course-related expenses. For example, amounts used for room,
board, and travel must be reported on line 1.
!
CAUTION
Income
You must use Form 1040A or 1040 if you received
dependent care benefits for 2007. You must use Form
1040 if you received employer-provided adoption benefits for 2007.
Missing or Incorrect Form W-2?
Rounding Off to Whole Dollars
You can round off cents to whole dollars on your return. If you do
round to whole dollars, you must round all amounts. To round, drop
amounts under 50 cents and increase amounts from 50 to 99 cents to
the next dollar. For example, $1.39 becomes $1 and $2.50 becomes
$3.
Your employer is required to provide or send Form W-2 to you no
later than January 31, 2008. If you do not receive it by early
February, use TeleTax topic 154 (see page 6) to find out what to do.
Even if you do not get a Form W-2, you must still report your
earnings on line 1. If you lose your Form W-2 or it is incorrect, ask
your employer for a new one.
If you have to add two or more amounts to figure the amount to
enter on a line, include cents when adding the amounts and round
off only the total.
Line 2
Example. You received two Forms W-2, one showing wages of
Taxable Interest
$5,009.55 and one showing wages of $8,760.73. On Form 1040EZ,
line 1, you would enter $13,770 ($5,009.55 + $8,760.73 =
$13,770.28).
Each payer should send you a Form 1099-INT or Form 1099-OID.
Report all of your taxable interest income on line 2 even if you did
not receive a Form 1099-INT or 1099-OID.

Include taxable interest from banks, savings and loan associations, money market certificates, credit unions, savings bonds, etc.
If interest was credited in 2007 on deposits that you could not
withdraw because of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the financial
institution, you may be able to exclude part or all of that interest
from your 2007 income. But you must use Form 1040A or 1040 to
do so. See Pub. 550 for details.
If you cashed series EE or I U.S. savings bonds in 2007 that were
issued after 1989 and you paid certain higher education expenses
during the year, you may be able to exclude from income part or all
of the interest on those bonds. But you must use Form 8815 and
Form 1040A or 1040 to do so.
You must use Form 1040A or 1040 if either of the following
applies.
• You received interest as a nominee (that is, in your name but
the interest income actually belongs to someone else).
• You received a 2007 Form 1099-INT for U.S. savings bond
interest that includes amounts you reported before 2007.
If you received an overpayment of unemployment compensation
in 2007 and you repaid any of it in 2007, subtract the amount you
repaid from the total amount you received. Include the result in the
total on line 3. Also, enter “Repaid” and the amount you repaid in
the space to the left of line 3. If you repaid unemployment compensation in 2007 that you included in gross income in an earlier year,
you can deduct the amount repaid. But you must use Form 1040 to
do so. See Pub. 525 for details.
Alaska Permanent Fund dividends. Include the dividends in the
total on line 3. But you cannot use Form 1040EZ for a child who
was under age 18 at the end of 2007 if the child’s dividends are
more than $1,700. Instead, you must file Form 8615 and Form
1040A or 1040 for the child. You must also use Form 8615 and
Form 1040A or 1040 for the child if the child’s dividends and
taxable interest (line 2) total more than $1,700. A child born on
January 1, 1990, is considered to be age 18 at the end of 2007. Do
not use Form 8615 for such a child.
Tax-Exempt Interest
If you received tax-exempt interest, such as from municipal bonds,
each payer should send you a Form 1099-INT. Your tax-exempt
interest should be included in box 8 of Form 1099-INT. Enter “TEI”
and the amount in the space to the left of line 2. Do not add
tax-exempt interest in the total on line 2.
Payments and Tax
Line 7
Federal Income Tax Withheld
Enter the total amount of federal income tax withheld. This should
be shown on your 2007 Form(s) W-2 in box 2.
Line 3
Unemployment Compensation and Alaska
Permanent Fund Dividends
Unemployment compensation. You should receive a Form 1099-G
showing the total unemployment compensation paid to you in 2007.
If you made contributions to a governmental unemployment compensation program, see Pub. 525 to determine the amount to report.
If you received a 2007 Form 1099-INT, 1099-G, or 1099-OID
showing federal income tax withheld, include the tax withheld in
the total on line 7. This tax should be shown in box 4 of these forms.
If federal income tax was withheld from your Alaska Permanent
Fund dividends, include the tax withheld in the total on line 7.

Combat pay, nontaxable. If you were a member of the U.S. Armed
Forces who served in a combat zone, certain pay is excluded from
your income. See Combat Zone Exclusion in Pub. 3. You can elect
to include this pay in your earned income when figuring the EIC.
The amount of your nontaxable combat pay should be shown in
Form(s) W-2, box 12, with code Q. If you are filing a joint return
and both you and your spouse received nontaxable combat pay, you
can each make your own election.

to get an automatic extension of time to file, include in the total on
line 9 any amount you paid with that form or by electronic funds
withdrawal or credit card. If you paid by credit card, do not include
on line 9 the convenience fee you were charged. To the left of line
9, enter “Form 4868” and show the amount paid.
Line 10
Tax
Do you want the IRS to figure your tax for you?
❏
❏
Yes. See Pub. 967 for details, including who is eligible and
what to do. If you have paid too much, we will send you a
refund. If you did not pay enough, we will send you a bill.
No. Use the Tax Table that starts on page 24.
If you want us to directly deposit the amount shown on line 11a
into your checking or savings account at a bank or other financial
institution (such as a mutual fund, brokerage firm, or credit union)
in the United States:
• Check the box on line 11a and attach Form 8888 if you want to
split the direct deposit of your refund among two or three accounts,
or
• Complete lines 11b through 11d if you want your refund
deposited to only one account.
Otherwise, we will send you a check.
Note. If you do not want your refund directly deposited into your
account, do not check the box on line 11a. Draw a line through the
boxes on lines 11b and 11d.
The IRS is not responsible for a lost refund if you enter
the wrong account information. Check with your financial institution to make sure your direct deposit will be
CAUTION
accepted and to get the correct routing and account
numbers. Do not use the routing number on a deposit slip if it is
different from the routing number on your checks.
!
Refund
If line 11a is under $1, we will send the refund only if you request it
when you file your return. If you want to check the status of your
refund, please wait at least 6 weeks (3 weeks if you filed electronically) from the date you filed to do so. But if you filed Form 8379
with your return, allow 14 weeks (11 weeks if you filed electronically). See page 6 for details.
TIP
check.
If your refund is large, you may want to decrease the
amount of income tax withheld from your pay by filing
a new Form W-4. See Income tax withholding and estimated tax payments for 2008 on page 21.
Refund Offset
If you owe past-due federal tax, state income tax, child support,
spousal support, or certain federal nontax debts, such as student
loans, all or part of the refund on line 11a may be used (offset) to
pay the past-due amount. Offsets for federal taxes are made by the
IRS. All other offsets are made by the Treasury Department’s
Financial Management Service (FMS). For federal tax offsets, you
will receive a notice from the IRS. For all other offsets, you will
receive a notice from FMS. To find out if you may have an offset or
if you have a question about it, contact the agency(ies) you owe the
debt to.
Injured spouse claim. If you file a joint return and your spouse has
not paid past-due federal tax, state income tax, child support,
spousal support, or a federal nontax debt, such as a student loan,
part or all of the refund on line 11a may be used (offset) to pay the
past-due amount. But your part of the refund may be refunded to
you if certain conditions apply and you complete Form 8379. For
details, use TeleTax topic 203 (see page 6) or see Form 8379.
If you file a joint return and check the box on line 11a and attach
Form 8888 or fill in lines 11b through 11d, you are allowing your
spouse to receive the refund on your behalf. This appointment
cannot be changed later.
If the direct deposit to your account is different from the amount
you expected, you will receive an explanation in the mail about 2
weeks after your refund is deposited.
Line 11a. You cannot file Form 8888 and split your refund among
two or three accounts if Form 8379 is filed with your return.
Line 11b. The routing number must be nine digits. The first two
digits must be 01 through 12 or 21 through 32. Otherwise, the direct
deposit will be rejected and a check sent instead. On the sample
check below, the routing number is 250250025. William and Doris
Maple would use that routing number unless their financial institution instructed them to use a different routing number for direct
deposits.
Your check may state that it is payable through a financial
institution different from the one at which you have your checking
account. If so, do not use the routing number on that check. Instead,
contact your financial institution for the correct routing number to
enter on line 11b.
Line 11c. Check the appropriate box for the type of account. Do not
check more than one box.
Lines 11a Through 11d
Line 11d. The account number can be up to 17 characters (both
numbers and letters). Include hyphens but omit spaces and special
symbols. Enter the number from left to right and leave any unused
boxes blank. On the sample check below, the account number is
20202086. Do not include the check number.
DIRECT DEPOSIT
Simple. Safe. Secure.
Fast Refunds! Choose direct deposit —a fast, simple, safe,
secure way to have your refund deposited automatically into
your checking or savings account.

Why Use Direct Deposit?
• You get your refund fast — in half the time as paper filers if
you e-file.

CAUTION
Amount You Owe
IRS e-file offers the electronic payment option of
electronic funds withdrawal (EFW). EFW can be
used to pay your current year balance due and can be used to make
up to four estimated tax payments. If you are filing early, you can
schedule your payment for withdrawal from your account on a
future date, up to and including April 15, 2008. If you file your
return after April 15, 2008, you now can include interest and penalty in your payment. Visit www.irs.gov and enter keyword “e-pay”
for details.
You also can pay using the electronic federal tax payment system
(EFTPS), a free tax payment system that allows you to make payments online or by phone. For more information or details on
enrolling, visit www.eftps.gov or call Customer Service at
1-800-316-6541. TTY/TDD help is available by calling
1-800-733-4829.
Line 12
TIP
To save interest and penalties, pay your taxes in full by
April 15, 2008. You do not have to pay if line 12 is
under $1.
Installment payments. If you cannot pay the full amount shown on
line 12 when you file, you can ask to make monthly installment
payments for the full or a partial amount. You may have up to 60
months to pay. However, even if your request to pay in installments
is granted, you will be charged interest and may be charged a late
payment penalty on the tax not paid by April 15, 2008. You must
also pay a fee. To limit the interest and penalty charges, pay as
much of the tax as possible when you file. But before requesting an
installment agreement, you should consider other less costly alternatives, such as a bank loan or credit card payment.
To ask for an installment agreement, you can apply online or use
Form 9465. To apply online, go to www.irs.gov, use the pull-down
menu under “I need to ...” and select “Set Up a Payment Plan.” If
you use Form 9465, you should receive a response to your request
to make installment payments within 30 days. But if you file your
return after March 31, it may take us longer to reply.
Penalty for Not Paying Enough Tax During the
Year
You may have to pay a penalty if line 12 is at least $1,000 and it is
more than 10% of the tax shown on your return. The “tax shown on
your return” is the amount on line 10 minus the amount on line 8a.
You may choose to have the IRS figure the penalty for you. If you
owe a penalty, the IRS will send you a bill. However, if you want to
figure the penalty yourself on Form 2210, you must file Form
1040A or 1040 to do so.
The penalty may be waived under certain conditions. See Pub.
505 for details.
Exceptions to the penalty. You will not owe the penalty if your
2006 tax return was for a tax year of 12 full months and either of the
following applies.
You can pay by check, money order, or credit card.
To pay by check or money order. Enclose in the envelope with
your return a check or money order payable to the “United States
Treasury” for the full amount when you file. Do not attach the
payment to your return. Do not send cash. Write “2007 Form
1040EZ” and your name, address, daytime phone number, and
social security number (SSN) on your payment. If you are filing a
joint return, enter the SSN shown first on your return.
To help process your payment, enter the amount on the right side
of the check like this: $ XXX.XX. Do not XX
use dashes or lines (for
example, do not enter “XXX – ” or “XXX 100”).
To pay by credit card. You can use your American Express®
Card, Discover® Card, MasterCard® card, or Visa® card. To pay
by credit card, call toll-free or visit the website of either service
provider listed on this page and follow the instructions. A convenience fee will be charged by the service provider based on the
amount you are paying. Fees may vary between the providers. You
will be told what the fee is during the transaction and you will have
the option to either continue or cancel the transaction. You can also
find out what the fee will be by calling the provider’s toll-free
automated customer service number or visiting the provider’s website shown on this page. If you pay by credit card before filing your
return, enter on page 1 of Form 1040EZ in the upper left corner the
1. You had no tax shown on your 2006 return and you were a
U.S. citizen or resident for all of 2006, or
2. Line 7 on your 2007 return is at least as much as the tax shown
on your 2006 return.
Third Party Designee
If you want to allow a friend, family member, or any other person
you choose to discuss your 2007 tax return with the IRS, check the
“Yes” box in the “Third party designee” area of your return. Also,
enter the designee’s name, phone number, and any five digits the
designee chooses as his or her personal identification number
(PIN). But if you want to allow the paid preparer who signed your
return to discuss it with the IRS, just enter “Preparer” in the space
for the designee’s name. You do not have to provide the other
information requested.
If you check the “Yes” box, you, and your spouse if filing a joint
return, are authorizing the IRS to call the designee to answer any
questions that may arise during the processing of your return. You
are also authorizing the designee to:

• Give the IRS any information that is missing from your return,
• Call the IRS for information about the processing of your
return or the status of your refund or payment(s),
• Receive copies of notices or transcripts related to your return,
upon request, and
• Respond to certain IRS notices about math errors, offsets, and
return preparation.
You are not authorizing the designee to receive any refund
check, bind you to anything (including any additional tax liability),
or otherwise represent you before the IRS. If you want to expand
the designee’s authorization, see Pub. 947.
The authorization will automatically end no later than the due
date (without regard to extensions) for filing your 2008 tax return.
This is April 15, 2009, for most people. If you want to revoke the
authorization before it ends, see Pub. 947.
Sign Your Return
Form 1040EZ is not considered a valid return unless you sign it. If
you are filing a joint return, your spouse must also sign. If your
spouse cannot sign the return, see Pub. 501. Be sure to date your
return and enter your occupation(s). If you are filing a joint return as
a surviving spouse, see Death of a taxpayer on page 21.
Child’s return. If your child cannot sign the return, either parent
can sign the child’s name in the space provided. Then, add “By
(your signature), parent for minor child.”
Daytime phone number. Providing your daytime phone number
may help speed the processing of your return. We can have questions about items on your return, such as the earned income credit.
By answering our questions over the phone, we may be able to
continue processing your return without mailing you a letter. If you
are filing a joint return, you can enter either your or your spouse’s
daytime phone number.
Paid preparer must sign your return. Generally, anyone you pay
to prepare your return must sign it in the space provided. The
Need more information or forms? See page 5.
preparer must give you a copy of the return for your records.
Someone who prepares your return but does not charge you should
not sign your return.
Electronic return signatures! Create your own
personal identification number (PIN) and file a
paperless return electronically or use a tax professional. If you are
married filing jointly, you and your spouse will each need to create
a PIN and enter these PINs as your electronic signatures.
A PIN is any combination of five digits you choose except five
zeros. If you use a PIN, there is nothing to sign and nothing to
mail – not even your Forms W-2.
To verify your identity, you will be prompted to enter your
adjusted gross income (AGI) from your originally filed 2006 federal income tax return, if applicable. Do not use your AGI from an
amended return (Form 1040X). AGI is the amount shown on your
2006 Form 1040, line 38; Form 1040A, line 21; or Form 1040EZ,
line 4. If you do not have your 2006 income tax return, call the IRS
at 1-800-829-1040 to get a free transcript of your return. You will
also be prompted to enter your date of birth (DOB). Make sure your
DOB is accurate and matches the information on record with the
Social Security Administration by checking your annual social security statement.
!
You cannot sign your return electronically if you are a
first-time filer under age 16 at the end of 2007.
CAUTION
For more details, visit www.irs.gov/efile and click on “e-file for
Individual Taxpayers.”
Forms 8453 and 8453-OL. Your return is not complete without
your signature. If you are not eligible or choose not to sign your
return electronically, you must complete, sign, and file Form 8453
or Form 8453-OL, whichever applies.
Sign electronically and file a completely paperless return. If you
use a paid preparer, ask to sign your return electronically!

Example. Mr. Brown is single. His taxable income on
line 6 of Form 1040EZ is $26,250. First, he finds the
$26,250-26,300 income line. Next, he finds the
“Single” column and reads down the column. The
amount shown where the income line and filing status
column meet is $3,550. This is the tax amount he

General Information
How to avoid common mistakes. Mistakes can delay your refund or
result in notices being sent to you.
1. Be sure to enter the correct social security number for you and
your spouse if married in the space provided on Form 1040EZ.
Check that your name and SSN agree with your social security card.
2. Use the amount from line 6 to find your tax in the tax table. Be
sure you enter the correct tax on line 10.
3. If you think you can take the earned income credit, read the
instructions for lines 8a and 8b that begin on page 13 to make sure
you qualify. If you do, make sure you use the correct column of the
EIC Table for your filing status.
4. Check your math, especially when figuring your taxable income, federal income tax withheld, earned income credit, total
payments, and your refund or amount you owe.
5. Check one or both boxes on line 5 if you (or your spouse) can
be claimed as a dependent on someone’s (such as your parents’)
2007 return. Check the box even if that person chooses not to claim
you (or your spouse). If no one can claim you (or your spouse) as a
dependent, do not check any of the boxes.
6. Enter an amount on line 5. If you check any of the boxes, use
the worksheet on the back of Form 1040EZ to figure the amount to
enter. If you do not check any of the boxes, enter $8,750 if single;
$17,500 if married filing jointly.
7. Remember to sign and date Form 1040EZ and enter your
occupation(s).
8. If you got a peel-off label, make sure it shows the correct
name(s) and address. If not, enter the correct information. If you did
not get a label, enter your name and address in the spaces provided
on Form 1040EZ. Check that your name agrees with your social
security card.
9. Attach your Form(s) W-2 to the left margin of Form 1040EZ.
10. If you owe tax and are paying by check or money order, be
sure to include all the required information on your payment. See
the instructions for line 12 on page 19 for details.
What are your rights as a taxpayer? You have the right to be
treated fairly, professionally, promptly, and courteously by IRS
employees. Our goal at the IRS is to protect your rights so that you
will have the highest confidence in the integrity, efficiency, and
fairness of our tax system. To ensure that you always receive such
treatment, you should know about the many rights you have at each
step of the tax process. For details, see Pub. 1.
Innocent spouse relief. Generally, both you and your spouse are
each responsible for paying the full amount of tax, interest, and
penalties on your joint return. However, you may qualify for relief
from liability for tax on a joint return if (a) there is an understatement of tax because your spouse omitted income or claimed false
deductions or credits, (b) you are divorced, separated, or no longer
living with your spouse, or (c) given all the facts and circumstances,
it would not be fair to hold you liable for the tax. To request relief,
you must file Form 8857 no later than 2 years after the date on
which the IRS first attempted to collect the tax from you. For more
information, see Pub. 971 and Form 8857. You can call the Innocent Spouse office toll-free at 1-866-897-4270.
Income tax withholding and estimated tax payments for 2008. If
the amount you owe or your refund is large, you may want to file a
new Form W-4 with your employer to change the amount of income
tax withheld from your 2008 pay. For details on how to complete
Form W-4, see Pub. 919. In general, you do not have to make
estimated tax payments if you expect that your 2008 tax return will
show a tax refund or a tax balance due of less than $1,000. See Pub.
505 for more details.
How long should you keep your tax return? Keep a copy of your
tax return, worksheets you used, and records of all items appearing
Need more information or forms? See page 5.
on it (such as Forms W-2 and 1099) until the statute of limitations
runs out for that return. Usually, this is 3 years from the date the
return was due or filed, or 2 years from the date the tax was paid,
whichever is later. You should keep some records longer. See Pub.
552 for details.
How do you amend your tax return? Use Form 1040X to change a
return you already filed. Generally, Form 1040X must be filed
within 3 years after the date the original return was filed, or within 2
years after the date the tax was paid, whichever is later. But you
may have more time to file Form 1040X if you are physically or
mentally unable to manage your financial affairs. See Pub. 556 for
details.
How do you make a gift to reduce debt held by the public? If you
wish to do so, make a check payable to “Bureau of the Public Debt.”
You can send it to: Bureau of the Public Debt, Department G, P.O.
Box 2188, Parkersburg, WV 26106-2188. Or you can enclose the
check with your income tax return when you file.
TIP
You may be able to deduct this gift on your 2008 tax
return.
How do you get a copy of your tax return? If you need a copy of
your tax return, use Form 4506. There is a $39 fee for each return
requested. If your main home, principal place of business, or tax
records are located in a Presidentially declared disaster area, this fee
will be waived. If you want a free transcript of your tax return or
account, use Form 4506-T or call us. See page 6 for the number.
Parent of a kidnapped child. The parent of a child who is presumed
by law enforcement authorities to have been kidnapped by someone
who is not a family member may be able to take the child into
account in determining his or her eligibility for the head of household or qualifying widow(er) filing status, deduction for dependents, child tax credit, and the earned income credit (EIC). For
details, use TeleTax topic 357 (see page 6) or see Pub. 501 (Pub.
596 for the EIC).
Do both the name and social security number (SSN) on your tax
forms agree with your social security card? If not, your
exemption(s) and any earned income credit may be disallowed,
your refund may be delayed, and you may not receive credit for
your social security earnings. If your Form W-2 shows an incorrect
name or SSN, notify your employer or the form-issuing agent as
soon as possible to make sure your earnings are credited to your
social security record. If the name or SSN on your social security
card is incorrect, call the Social Security Administration at
1-800-772-1213.
Identity theft. If you believe someone has assumed your identity to
file federal income tax returns, or to commit other tax fraud, complete Form 3949-A, Information Referral, and send it to the Internal
Revenue Service, Fresno, CA 93888. Victims of identity theft who
are suffering economic harm, experiencing a systemic problem, or
seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved
through normal channels may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate
Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling toll-free
1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059. For additional information about identity theft prevention and victim assistance, you
can access the IRS Identity Theft page at www.irs.gov by entering
keyword “identity theft.”
The IRS does not send out unsolicited emails requesting personal taxpayer information. If you receive this type of request, it
may be an attempt by identity thieves to get your private tax information. Send a copy of the fraudulent email to phishing@irs.gov.
For more information on how to forward one of these emails, go to

article titled “How To Protect Yourself From Suspicious E-Mails or
Phishing Schemes.”
Death of a taxpayer. If a taxpayer died before filing a return for
2007, the taxpayer’s spouse or personal representative may have to
file and sign a return for that taxpayer. A personal representative
can be an executor, administrator, or anyone who is in charge of the
deceased taxpayer’s property. If the deceased taxpayer did not have
to file a return but had tax withheld, a return must be filed to get a
refund. The person who files the return must enter “Deceased,” the
deceased taxpayer’s name, and the date of death across the top of
the return. If this information is not provided, the processing of the
return may be delayed.
If your spouse died in 2007 and you did not remarry in 2007, or
if your spouse died in 2008 before filing a return for 2007, you can
file a joint return. A joint return should show your spouse’s 2007
income before death and your income for all of 2007. Enter “Filing
as surviving spouse” in the area where you sign the return. If
someone else is the personal representative, he or she must also
sign.
The surviving spouse or personal representative should
promptly notify all payers of income, including financial institutions, of the taxpayer’s death. This will ensure the proper reporting
of income earned by the taxpayer’s estate or heirs. A deceased
taxpayer’s social security number should not be used for tax years
after the year of death, except for estate tax return purposes.
Claiming a refund for a deceased taxpayer. If you are filing a
joint return as a surviving spouse, you only need to file the tax
return to claim the refund. If you are a court-appointed representative, file the return and attach a copy of the certificate that shows
your appointment. All other filers requesting the deceased
taxpayer’s refund must file the return and attach Form 1310.
For more details, use TeleTax topic 356 (see page 6) or see Pub.
559.
Other Ways To Get Help
Send your written tax questions to the IRS. You should get an
answer in about 30 days. If you do not have the mailing address, call
us. See page 6 for the number. Do not send questions with your
return.
Research your tax questions online. You can find answers to many
of your tax questions online in several ways by accessing the IRS
website at www.irs.gov/help and then clicking on “Help with Tax
Questions.” Here are some of the methods you may want to try.
• Frequently asked questions. This section contains an extensive
list of questions and answers. You can select your question by
category or keyword.
• Tax trails. This is an interactive section which asks questions
you can answer by selecting “Yes” or “No.”
• Tax topics. This is an online version of the TeleTax topics
listed on page 32.
Free help with your return. Free help in preparing your return is
available nationwide from IRS-sponsored volunteers. These volunteers are trained and certified to prepare federal income tax returns
by passing an IRS test. The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
(VITA) program is designed to help low-income taxpayers. The
Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) program is designed to assist
taxpayers age 60 or older with their tax return preparation. VITA/
TCE tax preparation sites must adhere to strict quality standards
necessary to prepare accurate returns. Free electronic filing is offered by IRS authorized e-file providers at many of the VITA/TCE
locations nationwide. Volunteers will help you with claiming the
credits and deductions you may be entitled to. If you are a member
of the military, you can also get assistance on military tax benefits,
such as combat zone tax benefits, at an office within your installation. For more information on these programs, go to www.irs.gov
and enter keyword “VITA” in the upper right corner. Or, call us at
1-800-829-1040. To find the nearest AARP Tax-Aide site, visit
AARP’s website at www.aarp.org/taxaide or call 1-888-227-7669.
When you go for help, take proof of identity and social security
numbers (or individual taxpayer identification numbers) for your
spouse, your dependents, and yourself. Also take a copy of your
2006 tax return (if available), all your Forms W-2, 1099, and 1098
for 2007, and any other information about your 2007 income and
expenses.
Everyday tax solutions. You can get face-to-face help solving tax
problems every business day in IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers.
An employee can explain IRS letters, request adjustments to your
account, or help you set up a payment plan. Call your local Taxpayer Assistance Center for an appointment. To find the number, go
to www.irs.gov/localcontacts or look in the phone book under
“United States Government, Internal Revenue Service.”
Online services. If you subscribe to an online service, ask about
online filing or tax information.
Help for people with disabilities. Telephone help is available using
TTY/TDD equipment by calling 1-800-829-4059. Braille materials
are available at libraries that have special services for people with
disabilities.

Help With Unresolved Tax Issues
Taxpayer Advocate Service
The Taxpayer Advocate Service is an independent
organization within the IRS whose employees assist
taxpayers who are experiencing economic harm, who are
seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been
resolved through normal channels, or who believe that an
IRS system or procedure is not working as it should. You
may be eligible for assistance if:
You can contact the Taxpayer Advocate Service by:
● Calling their toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778
or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059,

(including fees for professional representation),

problem by the date promised by the IRS.
The service is free, confidential, tailored to meet your
needs, and available for businesses as well as individuals.
There is at least one local taxpayer advocate in each state,

and how to navigate it. If you qualify for assistance, you
will receive personalized service from a knowledgeable
advocate who will:
● Listen to your problem,
● Help you understand what needs to be done to resolve
it, and
● Stay with you every step of the way until your problem

Calling the IRS
If you cannot find the answer to your question using one of the methods listed onpage 5,
please call us for assistance at 1-800-829-1040. You will not be charged for the call unless
your phone company charges you for toll-free calls. Our normal hours of operation are
Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. local time. Assistance provided to
callers from Alaska and Hawaii will be based on the hours of operation in the Pacific time
zone.
TIP
If you want to check the status of your 2007 refund, see Refund Information
above.
Before You Call
IRS representatives care about the quality of the service provided to
you, our customer. You can help us provide accurate, complete
answers to your questions by having the following information
available.
• The tax form, schedule, or notice to which your question
relates.
• The facts about your particular situation. The answer to the
same question often varies from one taxpayer to another because of
differences in their age, income, whether they can be claimed as a
dependent, etc.
• The name of any IRS publication or other source of information that you used to look for the answer.
To maintain your account security, you may be asked for the
following information, which you should also have available: (a)
your social security number, date of birth, or personal identification
number (PIN) if you have one, and (b) the amount of refund shown
on your tax return, your filing status, the “Caller ID Number”
shown at the top of any notice you received, the numbers in your
street address, or your ZIP code. If you are asking for an installment
agreement to pay your tax, you will be asked for the highest amount
you can pay each month and the date on which you can pay it.
Evaluation of services provided. The IRS uses several methods to
evaluate our telephone service. One method is to record telephone
calls for quality purposes only. A random sample of recorded calls
is selected for review through the quality assurance process. Other
methods include listening to live calls in progress and random
selection of customers for participation in a customer satisfaction
survey.
Making the Call
Call 1-800-829-1040 (deaf customers with access to TTY/TDD
equipment may call 1-800-829-4059). Our menu allows you to
speak your responses or use your key pad to select a menu option.
After receiving your menu selection, the system will direct your call
to the appropriate assistance. You can do the following within the
system: (a) order tax forms and publications, (b) find out what you
owe, (c) determine if we have adjusted your account or received
payments you made, (d) request a transcript of your tax return or
account, (e) find out where to send your tax return or payment, (f)
request more time to pay or set up a monthly installment agreement,
and (g) find out if you qualify for innocent spouse relief.
Before You Hang Up
If you do not fully understand the answer you receive, or you feel
our representative may not fully understand your question, our
representative needs to know this. He or she will be happy to take
additional time to be sure your question is answered fully.
By law, you are responsible for paying your share of federal
income tax. If we should make an error in answering your question,
you are still responsible for the payment of the correct tax. Should
this occur, however, you will not be charged any penalty.
Disclosure, Privacy Act, and Paperwork Reduction Act Notice
The IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, the Privacy Act of
1974, and the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 require that when
we ask you for information we must first tell you our legal right to
ask for the information, why we are asking for it, and how it will be
used. We must also tell you what could happen if we do not receive
it and whether your response is voluntary, required to obtain a
benefit, or mandatory under the law.
This notice applies to all papers you file with us, including this
tax return. It also applies to any questions we need to ask you so we
can complete, correct, or process your return; figure your tax; and
collect tax, interest, or penalties.
Our legal right to ask for information is Internal Revenue Code
sections 6001, 6011, and 6012(a), which require you to file a return
or statement with us for any tax you are liable for. Your response is
mandatory under these sections. Code section 6109 requires that
you provide your social security number or individual taxpayer
identification number on what you file. This is so we know who you
are, and can process your return and other papers. You must fill in
all parts of the tax form that apply to you. But you do not have to
check the boxes for the Presidential Election Campaign Fund or for
the third party designee. You also do not have to provide your
daytime phone number.
You are not required to provide the information requested on a
form that is subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act unless the form
displays a valid OMB control number. Books or records relating to
a form or its instructions must be retained as long as their contents
Need more information or forms? See page 5.
may become material in the administration of any Internal Revenue
law.
We ask for tax return information to carry out the tax laws of the
United States. We need it to figure and collect the right amount of
tax.
If you do not file a return, do not give the information asked for,
or give false information, you may be charged penalties and be
subject to criminal prosecution. We may also have to disallow the
exemptions, credits, or deductions shown on your tax return. This
could make the tax higher or delay any refund. Interest may also be
charged.
Generally, tax returns and return information are confidential, as
stated in Code section 6103. However, Code section 6103 allows or
requires the Internal Revenue Service to disclose or give the information shown on your tax return to others as described in the Code.
For example, we may disclose your tax information to the Department of Justice to enforce the tax laws, both civil and criminal, and
to cities, states, the District of Columbia, U.S. commonwealths or
possessions, and certain foreign governments to carry out their tax
laws. We may disclose your tax information to the Department of
Treasury and contractors for tax administration purposes; and to
other persons as necessary to obtain information which we cannot
get in any other way in order to determine the amount of or to
collect the tax you owe. We may disclose your tax information to
the Comptroller General of the United States to permit the Comptroller General to review the Internal Revenue Service. We may

disclose your tax information to Committees of Congress; federal,
state, and local child support agencies; and to other federal agencies
for the purposes of determining entitlement for benefits or the
eligibility for and the repayment of loans. We may also disclose this
information to other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state
agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, or to federal law
enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism..
Please keep this notice with your records. It may help you if we
ask you for other information. If you have questions about the rules
for filing and giving information, please call or visit any Internal
Revenue Service office.
We welcome comments on forms. If you have suggestions for mak-
ing this form simpler, we would be happy to hear from you. You

Estimates of Taxpayer Burden
The table below shows burden estimates by form type and type of
taxpayer. Time burden is further broken out by taxpayer activity.
The largest component of time burden for all taxpayers is recordkeeping, as opposed to form completion and submission. In addition, the time burden associated with form completion and
submission activities is closely tied to preparation method (self-prepared without software, self-prepared with software, and prepared
by paid preparer).
Time spent and out-of-pocket costs are estimated separately.
Out-of-pocket costs include any expenses incurred by taxpayers to
prepare and submit their tax returns. Examples of out-of-pocket
costs include tax return preparation and submission fees, postage,
tax preparation software costs, photocopying costs, and phone calls
(if not toll-free).
Both time and cost burdens are national averages and do not
necessarily reflect a “typical” case. For instance, the average time
burden for all taxpayers filing a 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ was 24.2
hours, with an average cost of $207 per return. This average includes all associated forms and schedules, across all preparation
methods and all taxpayer activities. Taxpayers filing Form 1040
had an average burden of about 30 hours, and taxpayers filing Form
1040A and Form 1040EZ averaged about 11 hours. However,
within each of these estimates, there is significant variation in
taxpayer activity. Similarly, tax preparation fees vary extensively
depending on the taxpayer’s tax situation and issues, the type of
professional preparer, and the geographic area.
The data shown are the best estimates available as of xxx, from
tax returns filed for 2006. The method used to estimate taxpayer
burden incorporates results from a taxpayer burden survey conducted in 2000 and 2001. The estimates are subject to change as
new forms and data become available. The estimates do not include
burden associated with post-filing activities. However, operational
IRS data indicate that electronically prepared and e-filed returns
have fewer errors, implying a lower overall post-filing burden.
If you have comments concerning the time and cost estimates
below, you can contact us at either one of the addresses shown
under We Welcome Comments on Forms above.
Estimated Average Taxpayer Burden for Individuals by Activity
The average time and costs required to complete and file Form 1040, Form 1040A, Form 1040EZ, their schedules, and accompanying forms will vary
depending on individual circumstances. The estimated averages are:

On or before the first Monday in February of each year, the President is required by law to submit to the Congress a budget proposal
for the fiscal year that begins the following October. The budget
plan sets forth the President’s proposed receipts, spending, and the
surplus or deficit for the Federal Government. The plan includes
recommendations for new legislation as well as recommendations
to change, eliminate, and add programs. After receiving the
President’s proposal, the Congress reviews it and makes changes. It
first passes a budget resolution setting its own targets for receipts,
outlays, and surplus or deficit. Next, individual spending and revenue bills that are consistent with the goals of the budget resolution
are enacted.
In fiscal year 2006 (which began on October 1, 2005, and ended
on September 30, 2006), federal income was $2.407 trillion and
outlays were $2.655 trillion, leaving a deficit of $0.248 trillion.
Footnotes for Certain Federal Outlays
1. Social security, Medicare, and other retirement: These
programs provide income support for the retired and disabled and
medical care for the elderly.
Physical, human,

12%
Net interest on

8%
National defense,

23%
2. National defense, veterans, and foreign affairs: About 19%
of outlays were to equip, modernize, and pay our armed forces and
to fund the Global War on Terrorism and other national defense
activities; about 3% were for veterans benefits and services; and
about 1% were for international activities, including military and
economic assistance to foreign countries and the maintenance of
U.S. embassies abroad.
3. Physical, human, and community development: These outlays were for agriculture; natural resources; environment; transportation; aid for elementary and secondary education and direct
assistance to college students; job training; deposit insurance, commerce and housing credit, and community development; and space,
energy, and general science programs.
4. Social programs: About 13% of total outlays were for Medicaid, food stamps, temporary assistance for needy families, supplemental security income, and related programs; and the remaining
outlays were for health research and public health programs, unemployment compensation, assisted housing, and social services.
Note. The percentages on this page exclude undistributed offsetting receipts, which were $68 billion in fiscal year 2006. In the budget, these receipts are offset against
spending in figuring the outlay totals shown above. These receipts are for the U.S. Government’s share of its employee retirement programs, rents and royalties on the
Outer Continental Shelf, and proceeds from the sale of assets.
