Here is what the Form 1040 looks like now--it is two half pages.  The first page has your name, address. etc. on it.  Do you see that black arrow near the bottom right that points to the words "Sign Here?"

What year?  For 2018 there is no more 1040A or 1040EZ.  Everything goes on a little Form 1040 that has six extra "schedules" with it,

Did you buy and install the Desktop program?  You might need to update it.  Go up to Online- Check for Updates.

Yes that is the NEW postcard size 1040.  Under the new tax laws, there are no more simple Form 1040EZ or 1040A's.  Everything goes on a little Form 1040 that has six extra "schedules" with it.  The new 1040 is 2 half pages but now print on 1 sheet with the Signature line in the Middle.
