If you did not take a deduction for gifts you paid, then you can include them in your itemized deductions for tax years starting in 2007. You will find complete details concerning the allowable deduction for gifts on IRS Form 1040, Miscellaneous Deductions and Awards. Do I still need to file my 1040? The filing of Forms 1040 and 1040-C by individuals and corporations and by partnerships, S corporations and trusts, with specified exemptions, is a requirement of the tax code. The IRS requires a taxpayer to submit Form 1040 if they have to file a federal income tax return. Form 1040 is the only way to report income in which foreign source income may be considered. It only indicates income you have reported on the last scheduled return, not tax you have received or paid. How does this impact my federal income tax? The IRS uses Forms 1040 for tax years beginning October 2007. If you have any itemized deductions for gifts or foreign income you reported on your 2011 and after tax returns, you must file Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return for Exemption from Income and Information Reporting Tax. Individuals who reported foreign sources of income are required to file IRS Form 8948, Foreign Income Tax Return of an American Citizen Filing a Joint U.S.

In your response to IRS Request for Information you should choose the appropriate form instead of including a W-9 or W-7EZ. How do I use W-9s or W-7EZs for tax reporting purposes? You must make sure you fully understand the information shown on both the W-9 or W-7EZ and the associated forms. You must include with each Form 1099, Form W-9 /1099, Form W-8 / W-5, Form W-11 or Form W-7 electronic copies to support the application. This is the law.

For tax years 2009 through 2014 For tax years 2011 through 2015 For all other tax years Can I file W-9 electronically? Yes, you can file W-9 online. However, there are a few additional steps that you have to take.

For taxpayers who have a W-9 form from a prior tax year, you can use that form in place of the 2014 form on your Form 1040 or Form 1040A and send the replacement form to the Internal Revenue Service, Attn: W-9, P.O. Box 4063, Kansas City, MO 64. When do I need to file my W-9? File your tax return with the W-9 form that was issued as an attachment to your original tax return. For tax years starting in 2011, you must use the amended form that you filed as a separate attachment to the original return. In other words, you are required to attach the new form to the original return only if the new form is different from the original form filed with your original return. Can I sign and file a W-8BEN? If you are filing an individual income tax return, you cannot use the W-8BEN form, a form that is similar to the W-9 form. However, you can use other documents to document the information on your Form 1040 or Form 1040A for an estimated tax return. How do I use the W-8BEN form in my tax return? You must attach the W-8BEN form to your individual income tax return. However, if you have a dependent child or married filing separately, you can use Form 1041 rather than the W-8BEN form. Form 1041 requires that you provide the following information: the child's birth and death date; a copy of the child's birth certificate or other official document; and The names of all dependent children of the taxpayer. Use Form 1041 to document the information on each child's Form 1040. Include this information with your Form 1040. File Form 1041 if the child was born before January 1, 2017, and the child was more than 1 year of age at the time of the birth. Use Form 1041 to document the information on each child's Form 1040 and add it to your return. Include this information with your Form 1040. If you are married, you are required to complete Form 1041 if one member of your household was not a U.S. citizen or resident at the time of the birth of the child.

More than 6.5 million people filed federal tax returns in 2013, according to a report from the Internal Revenue Service. That's about half as many as in the year 2000, the last time the IRS had data that close to three years old. It was the worst year in a decade of underperformance. That doesn't mean that people don't submit enough W-9s, it's just there aren't as many of them as one might think. It appears that there were 3.7 million W-9s filed for tax year 2011. The report goes on to say that about half of the 2011 returns were filed electronically — in other words, that most of the returns had to be processed through a computer.
