10. Do pls remember to scroll past the last half of page 1 of Form 1040, which is blank, and on to

the 2nd page, That screwed me up for the longest time. I thought the 1st page of 1040 -- a half page -- was it -- because it ended with all the signatures - the preparer's signature, the taxpayers signature, and all that. But finally, after beating my head on the wall or any other solid object I could beat my head against, I finally scrolled down, and down, and down, and at last, page 2 of 1040 appears! So it is a (mighty big) 2-sided "post card".

For convenience, links to Form 1040 and the 6 spanking new schedules all together:

Schedule 1, Additional Income and Adjustments to Income

Schedule 2, Tax
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s2.pdf
Schedule 3, Nonrefundable Credits
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s3.pdf
Schedule 4, Other Taxes
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s4.pdf
Schedule 5, Other Payments and Refundable Credits
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s5.pdf
Schedule 6, Foreign Address and Third Party Designee
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s6.pdf

Form 1040: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf
Remember to scroll and scroll down to page 2.

Sheesh. Just give me the old damn Form 1040 back.

To someone who asked about 1040A - that's gone. It's been replace by the "post card size" 1040 and whatever auxiliary schedules (Schedule 1 thru Schedule 6) you need. MAGA!

And the old schedules, like Schedule A, B, C, D, E blah blah and all those Forms like Form 4835 and 8606 (in my case), two among many many, yep, those are still around and needed by many.
