Can I itemize a side business and then add that income to my regular income and use the 1040EZ form to file?

Can I itemize a side business and then add that income to my regular income and use the 1040EZ form to file?

Unfortunately, you cannot.  

First, the 1040EZ form was eliminated for 2018.  The only forms are the 1040 and the 1040NR for non-residents. 

Second, your self-employment business income must be reported on Schedule C.  You cannot determine your net profit and add to your W-2 income because your net profit would be subject to self-employment taxes.
