If you are looking for your 2018 AGI to e-file:
There are four IRS forms that reflect AGI, each of which shows the amount on a different line:
- Line 8b on Form 1040
- Line 8b on Form 1040-SR
- Line 21 on Form 1040A (for tax years before 2018)
- Line 4 on Form 1040EZ (for tax years before 2018)
- Line 35 on Form 1040NR
You can find the name of your tax form on the upper left hand corner of your return.
If you used online tax software, you can typically login and download a copy of your prior year’s 1040 tax return to find your AGI.

How to find your 2019 AGI
The exact location of your 2019 AGI (adjusted gross income) depends on which 1040 form you filed:
- 1040 – look on line 7
- 1040NR – look on line 35
Finding this number is easy if you already filed your 2019 return and printed a copy for your records. In fact, your lender will probably want to see a copy of your return so they can verify your AGI.
If you forgot to print a copy after filing, we have some links below that can help.
Tip: You won't find your 2019 AGI on your W-2 or 1099 form. Nor should you pull your AGI if you're still working on your federal return, as this number will likely fluctuate as you add or remove income or expenses.
