Form Schedule A is an IRS document used for itemizing deductions from your income tax return. It allows taxpayers to report itemized deductions that they are eligible for, such as charitable contributions, medical expenses, mortgage interest and other applicable expenses. The total of the deductions taken on Form Schedule A can reduce your taxable income by allowing you to claim a greater proportion of certain types of income as tax-free.
Form Schedule A must be completed and attached to your Form 1040 or 1040SR when filing your taxes. You may need to complete a separate Form 8889 if you plan to contribute to an individual retirement account (IRA). To use Form Schedule A, you must determine that the total amount of all itemized deductions exceeds the standard deduction for the year.
When filing your taxes, it is important to consult with a tax professional to ensure that you are taking full advantage of all available deductions and credits. Consulting with a tax professional can also help you better understand how Form Schedule A relates to other IRS forms and documents needed for filing your taxes.
