You can have the IRS figure your tax on Form 1040EZ, Form 1040A, or Form 1040 if
you file your return by April 18, 2011.
If you paid too much, we will send you a refund. If you did not
pay enough, we will send you a bill for the balance. To avoid interest or the
penalty for late payment, you must pay the bill within 30 days of the date of
the bill or by the due date for your return, whichever is later.
The IRS will also figure the credit for the elderly or the disabled
and the earned income credit for you.
The IRS cannot figure your tax if any of the following apply.
- You want your refund to be directly deposited in your accounts.
- You want any part of your refund applied to your 2011 estimated
tax.
- You had income for the year from sources other than wages,
salaries, tips, interest, dividends, taxable social security benefits,
unemployment compensation, IRA distributions, pensions, and annuities.
- Your taxable income is $100,000 or more.
- You itemize deductions.
- You file any of the following forms.
- Form 2555, Foreign Earned Income.
- Form 2555-EZ, Foreign Earned Income Exclusion.
- Form 4137, Social Security and Medicare Tax on Unreported
Tip Income.
- Form 4970, Tax on Accumulation Distribution of Trusts.
- Form 4972, Tax on Lump-Sum Distributions.
- Form 6198, At-Risk Limitations.
- Form 6251, Alternative Minimum Tax—Individuals.
- Form 8606, Nondeductible IRAs.

Income of More Than $1,900.

and Dividends.
- Form 8839, Qualified Adoption Expenses.
- Form 8853, Archer MSAs and Long-Term Care Insurance Contracts.

on Wages.
