Message from the IRS:
The production of some 2012 major tax products, including the Form 1040 and the Instructions for Form 1040, is impacted by the recent passage of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. At this time, we do not have an estimate as to when products will become available on IRS.gov [1] or in print.
In-Library Resources
During tax season, the library has the following federal and state tax publications:
- 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ forms & instructions
- Schedules A, B, C, D, E, EIC, SE, ES
- Forms 1040-V (Payment Voucher), 2441, and 4868
- Massachusetts Form 1 (Resident Income Tax Return)
- Massachusetts Form 1-NR (Nonresident or Part-Year Resident Income Tax Return)
If you need additional tax forms, please visit the IRS website or an area IRS office [2]. The closest IRS offices are in Boston or Brockton.
Reproducible forms from the past ten years are located in the Main Library’s Business & Career section, located on the top floor.
