For the last 3 years my daughter filed a schedule C -ez. Nothing has changed of 2017 but the form printed a schedule C instead of C-ez

If she earned over $5,000 a Schedule C would print as the EZ only goes up to $5,000  If her income was under $5,000 and she meets the rest of the qualifications for Schedule C-EZ she could technically file it, however, using the C-EZ instead of the C will not have any actual effect on her return.  Generally, if income or something else hasn't changed, if one question may have been answered a different way even if you went back to change it, the C could have been generated.
