Form 1040EZ (Income Tax Return for Single and Jont Filers with No Dependents) is the simplest of the 1040 series to fill out. You may use it if all the following apply.

One, your taxable income is less than $100,000.

Two, you're filing as Single or Married Filing Jointly.

Three, you aren't claiming any dependents.

Four, you (and your spouse if Married Filing Jointly) were under age 65 and not blind throughout the tax year.

Five, you only have certain types of income (wages/salaries/tips; taxable scholarship/fellowship; unemployment compensation; Alaska Permanent Fund dividends).

Six, your taxable interest wasn't over $1,500.

Seven, you didn't receive any advance earned income credit payments.

Eight, you don't owe any household employment taxes on wages paid to a household employee, if any.

Nine, you aren't a debtor in Chapter 11 bankruptcy filed after October 16, 2005.

Ten, you don't owe any alternative minimum tax.

Eleven, you aren't claiming adjustments to income (such as educator expense, student loan interest, tuition/fees).

Twelve, you aren't claiming certain credits (education, retirement savings, health coverage). The only credits that can be claimed on Form 1040EZ are making work pay and earned income.
