Where can I find my prior year AGI?

If you filed a federal tax return last year:  Get a copy of your return.  You can find your prior year AGI in the following places (based on the form that you filed):

  • If you filed Form 1040, your AGI will be listed on line 37.
  • If you filed Form 1040A, your AGI will be listed on line 21.
  • If you filed Form 1040-EZ, your AGI will be listed on line 4.
If you do not have a copy of last year's return on hand, you can get your AGI by calling the IRS Help Desk at 1-800-829-1040.

If you DID NOT file a federal tax return last year:  Enter "0" for your "prior year AGI".  Since you did not file a tax return last year, the IRS does not have a prior year AGI on file for you.  If you did not file a return last year, you should just enter "0".
