How do I find last year’s AGI?

To find your prior-year Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), look on a copy of the tax return you filed last year.

Your 2023 AGI will be on Line 11 of Form 1040.

If you filed with 1040.com, we’ll automatically carry forward your prior-year AGI to validate your identity when you file this year. You can also sign in and view a completed copy of your return from last year. In the upper left-hand corner of the PDF, you will see which main tax form your return was filed on.

Still waiting on your 2023 tax return to be processed? Or simply didn't file last year? Here's what to put for prior-year AGI.
