Form 1040 is part of the 1040 series of federal income tax returns. It's often referred to as 'the long form'. The other two forms in the series are Form 1040EZ (Income Tax Return for Single and Joint Filers with no Dependents) and Form 1040A. Under certain circumstances, you're required to file your income taxes using Form 1040.

Following are some of the more common reasons for having to use Form 1040. One, your taxable income is at least $100,000. Two, you have certain types of income (such as unreported tips, self-employment earnings, partnership income, estate/trust beneficiary, etc.). Three, you're itemizing deductions. Four, you're claiming certain adjustments to income (such as alimony, moving expenses, self-employment tax, etc.). Four, you're claiming certain tax credits (such as foreign tax, first-time homebuyer, etc.). Five, you owe household employment taxes.
