IRS Form 1040 State Requirements

If you are a resident, part-year resident, or nonresident, you are still required to file an IRS 1040 Form. When filing Form 1040, you may be eligible for a refund, or you may owe taxes to the IRS.

Depending on the state that you file in, you may have other forms that the state will require alongside filing your federal income return.
