What form do i use if i am permanently and totally disabled

You will still use form 1040.  You may be eligible for a disability credit which is claimed by completing a schedule R.  TurboTax will assist with this as you answer the interview questions.

 

1.  Click on the "deductions & credits' tab at the top of the page

2.  Scroll down to "other deductions and credits"

3.  Select "show more"

4.  "Start/revist" the "elderly or disabled credit"
