This new 1040-SR is the silliest thing the IRS has done to date … what a waste of effort & paper… the new 1040-SR is EXACTLY the same in line information as the 1040 this year ... the ONLY differences are the font size, background color (that TT doesn't print) and the fact that they added a standard exemption chart to the bottom of the first page of the SR form ...
LOOK at them side by side and have a good laugh.
I still can’t find any reason why the form 1040 could not simply have larger font and no background color ( which used to differentiate the 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ apart from each other).
