return on interest
Investing money will earn you more money. Savings accounts actually are a slight form of an investment, but the return isn't that great. Higher risk investments (such as the stock market), have a much greater return investment-wise.
USED as a part of all of your gross worldwide income that you will report on your 1040 federal income tax return. You would have some dividend income and some interest income to be reported on the tax form. Generally, dividends are taxed differently (more beneficially) than interest. Interest is ordinary income at your normal rate, which depends on your circumstances. Whereas dividends are taxed like long term capital gains rates with the max being 15%.
If you did not have any worldwide gross income to be reported on your 1040 federal income tax return you would not have any adjusted gross income on line 38 to deduct the schedule A itemized deductions of the 1040 tax form from on your 1040 tax form.

The IRS provides instruction and forms needed to fill out online. The 1040 tax return form can be found here http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/index.html.
Only if taxes were withheld from the interest paid would require you to include a copy of the form to be included with your return.
Yes you do if it is taxable interest. All of the interest that is received is reported on your 1040 tax form. The tax exempt interest is not subject to income tax but has to be reported on your 1040 income tax return as exempt interest.
Form 1040EZ is Income Tax Return for Single and Joint Filers with No Dependents. Line 2 in the Income Section of Form 1040EZ is where you enter taxable interest. Most interest that you receive and that you can withdraw is taxable income. Examples of taxable interest are interest on bank accounts, money market accuracy certificates, and credit union dividends. The payer sends this information to you on Form 1099-INT or Form 1099-OID.

Only the interest from the CD is considered taxable income. The money you deposited and got back is not. The bank should send you a Form 1099-INT each year telling you how much interest is taxable. Enter the interest from your Form 1099-INT on your tax return.
The information it provides is put on your return. The form itself isn't required to be submitted by you....the IRS already has one from whoever sent you yours...their computers are just looking to match the info they have with that on your return.
No difference....just the calculation of late/interest due would be. Same form, same place, same otherwise.
