The 1040-SR is a tax form designed specifically for seniors, aged 65 and older, to file their federal income taxes. It is similar to the standard 1040 form but features larger print and a simplified layout, making it easier for older taxpayers to read and complete. This form allows seniors to report their income, claim deductions, and calculate their tax liability. It also includes a section for reporting Social Security benefits and other retirement income, ensuring that seniors can accurately file their taxes while taking advantage of available tax benefits.
