Can anyone help me figure out what my last year's Federal AGI was - if I don't have the return?

Answer 1

Taxpayers can call the IRS toll free number at 1-800-829-1040. If you can provide certain information to the Customer Service Representative (such as your name, SSN, and current address), you may receive the prior year original AGI amount or prior year PIN over the phone or you may request a free transcript. Allow 7 to 10 days to receive the transcript. You should be sure to ask for the original AGI.

Answer 2

The AGI is a number from the 2006 tax return that you simply filed online a 12 months ago. It does no longer come with the W-2, the check, or whatever else. You will have to have saved a copy of what you filed last 12 months. Try getting into the quantity of "1. Wages, recommendations, other, comp" in your 2006 W-2 (now not your present one). That might work. If not, you might not be able to file on-line, and could have to file a paper return.

Answer 3

Did you not have to file last year that you don't have a return? And are you filing online for the first time this year? You may need to mail in your return this year and e-file next year. If you didn't earn enough to file last year, you AGI should probably be zero.

Answer 4

Did you file online?

I know I can sign into TurboTax online and view all the returns I've filed through them. If you had someone prepare them for you, they should have copies.

If you don't have any of your tax documents from last year, I'm afraid you might have to start from scratch. In other words, fill out your taxes again.

Answer 5

If you had them done professionally last year you should be able to contact the business who did them for you. They can supply you with a copy of what you filed last year.

Answer 6

Nope, looking it up on the actual return as filed is the only way to know what it was.
