Dépôt de votre déclaration de revenus 1040

Pour déclarer vos revenus aux États-Unis, vous devrez utiliser le formulaire 1040, la feuille de calcul standard de l’IRS.

Vous trouverez ci-dessous un exemple de formulaire 1040 à remplir vous-même pour vous entraîner. Voici le scénario de cet exercice : essayez de remplir la déclaration de revenus en vous basant sur ce scénario :

  • Vous vous appelez Alex Smith et résidez à Springfield, aux États-Unis. Toutes vos coordonnées sont pré-remplies ; inutile de les ressaisir.
  • Vous exercez un emploi stable, ce qui vous a permis d’obtenir un formulaire W-2 l’année dernière, lequel représente la majeure partie de vos revenus. Vous trouverez ci-dessous un bouton pour consulter votre formulaire W-2.
  • Vous possédez également un compte d’épargne : votre banque vous a envoyé un formulaire 1099-INT indiquant les intérêts perçus sur votre compte d’épargne. Vous trouverez ci-dessous un bouton pour consulter votre formulaire 1099-INT.
  • Vous allez déclarer vos impôts en tant qu’adulte célibataire et personne ne peut vous déclarer comme personne à charge.
  • À côté de la plupart des champs, vous trouverez un « ? », qui vous explique ce que cela signifie et comment le saisir.
  • Vous n’avez aucun autre revenu, dépense ou formulaire/annexe particulier en dehors de votre W-2 et de votre 1099 (vous ignorerez donc de nombreux champs).

Bonne chance – j’espère que vous obtiendrez une déclaration d’impôts et que vous n’aurez pas à payer de supplément !

Your Tax Table

Your total tax is based on your tax bracket – the more you earn, the higher tax rate you will pay. But calculating taxes based on marginal rates can be confusing for some people – so when filing taxes, the IRS provides tax “tables”, showing the tax owed for small increments of income. The published “tax tables” are over a dozen pages long, so we just included the part actually need to see based on your income below. Important Note: These tax tables are based on the 2023 tax year – the tax tables change every year.

Filing Your Income Taxes

To file income tax in the United States, you will need to use “Form 1040” – the standard income tax return worksheet from the IRS.

This exercise will have you fill out your taxes, with all the information you need to succeed.

See Instructions

Instructions – Page 1

Your name is Alex Smith, from Springfield, USA. All of your contact information is pre-filled, so no need to re-enter it.

You are going to file your taxes as a single adult, and nobody can claim you as a dependent.

Next

Instructions – Page 2

You have a regular employment job, which sent you a W-2 last year that accounts for most of your income. You can find a button to view your W-2 form below.

You also have a savings account – your bank sent you a Form 1099-INT showing the interest earned on your savings account. You can find a button to view your 1099-INT below.

You have not recieved any other “Forms”, and have no other special income.

Next

Instructions – Last Page

Fill out the Form 1040 below with the information provided.

Next to most fields you can find a “?”, giving you more information about what this means and how you should enter it.

Tax Tip: “Forms” are sent to you by mail (almost always by February, with taxes due in April). “Schedules” are other tax forms that you need to fill out before completing the 1040, which detail other special circumstances. In this scenario, no “schedules” will apply to you, but we do explain what they are.
