Thank you for sharing; however, none of these apply to me! Not a single one! My return is simple. There is no added complexities to my return. It's exactly the same as the previous year; and I was able to submit. Can you please help me determine why the Schedule B was created? So far, everything I have been told does not apply to me. PLEASE, I AM ASKING FOR HELP! I would be totally find being charged if I met any one of the below criteria but I simply don't meet these or any others. I looked at my filings side by side to the previous year...and still, there is nothing that changed. I need someone to look at my filing and tell me, tell me why.
Use Schedule B (Form 1040) if any of the following applies.
• You had over $1,500 of taxable interest or ordinary dividends. - does not apply to me

property as a personal residence. - does not apply to me

• You are reporting original issue discount (OID) of less than the amount shown
on Form 1099-OID. - does not apply to me

due to amortizable bond premium.- does not apply to me
