Should I staple my 1040 (and supplemental forms) together? Should I staple my W2 to the front (or back)? Any information (or link to get information) would be appreciated.

Staple the W-2(smallest piece of paper to the largest if you have more than one) to the left side of the front page (in the middle, not the bottom or top). Then staple the 1040 with all of its forms together in the top left corner. Make sure you're sending it to the right place now that it's after July 1st. www.irs.gov

You staple your W-2(s) to the front of your 1040.
On each of the IRS Schedules and supplemental IRS Forms you have completed with data and are submitting, in the top right hand corner just below the YEAR 2006 there is a SEQUENCE NUMBER that identifies the ORDER one attaches all forms behind the top of their signed1040. For example, Schedule A - Itemized Deductions says Attachment Sequence No. 7, Schedule B - Interest and Ordinary Dividends says Sequence No. 8, Schedule D - Capital Gains & Losses says Sequence No. 12
Hope the Info Info Helps your Understanding!

You should attach (staple) the W-2 to the front of form 1040 on the left side in the wages section where it says attach form W-2. You do not need to staple any of the other documents to the 1040.

The 1040 form shows you where to attach the W-2's ... staple to the front.

If you use Turbo Tax or a like software, it prints the return in the exact order it should be filed. I haven't looked lately but I believe you are susposed to paperclip your W2 to the forms rather than staple them, this makes it easier to process.
