Solved: Your exemption is one (for yourself). Form 1040EZ Box 5,...

How can I find my number of exemptions in my 2016 1040EZ form if I am single and no one can claim me as a dependent?

This is for FAFSA. Instructions on FAFSA and TurboTax have not helped me locate my number of exemptions. Please help!

This answer is for tax year 2017 and prior years.

Your exemption is one (for yourself). Form 1040EZ Box 5, You should have a check mark in it.

For Tax Year 2018 and later, you will no longer use Form 1040-EZ, but instead use the Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR.
