Quick Facts

Tax preparers (or volunteers at VITA/TCE sites) complete the form for individual taxpayers.
It captures personal data, filing status, dependents, income types, deductions, credits, and any prior‑year carryovers.
The worksheet is completed at the start of the tax‑preparation interview, before the actual tax return is prepared.
The completed form stays with the preparer’s records; it is not mailed to the IRS. A copy may be attached to the client’s return if requested by the preparer’s organization.
Errors in the worksheet can lead to incorrect entries on the tax return, causing processing delays, penalties, or loss of credits.
1. Gather the client’s identification, Social Security numbers, and prior‑year return. 2. Fill out the personal information section, confirming spelling and numbers. 3. Record all income sources, deductions, and credits as the client reports them. 4. Review the worksheet with the client, sign, and date. 5. Attach or retain the worksheet according to the preparer’s internal policy.
