My review of my taxes shows form 1040 has zero income for seven lines but does not tell me how to correct it. Can you please help?

Should I be able to correct items on my 1040 form?  Can you please tell me how?

What kind of income did you enter?  Do you only have Social Security?   SS is not taxable and you don't have to file a return.  If you want to efile you can add $1 of interest.  It won't affect your return.  Enter a fake 1099Int for $1.

Enter a 1099-Int  under

Federal Taxes tab

Wages & Income

Interest and Dividends

Interest on 1099INT - Click the Start, Revisit Or Update button

Thank you so much for answering me.  The information is very helpful.  The only problem is I can’t figure out how to access anywhere on my tax form to do what you suggested.  It doesn’t let me enter anything.  I appreciate your help, though.

Sign in to your return and click on Wages & Income (under Federal) from the left side menu.   Then click on Investments and Savings - 1099-INT.   You can enter interest income on that screen.
