I don't think you can use a 1040EZ if you want to take any deductions (like mortgage interest, student loan interest, etc).
- masklinn 11y agoI don't know why an e-filing system couldn't handle that, form wizards aren't rocket surgery, you'd just have e.g. a page were you select types of loans outstanding, which would insert steps to fill in relevant information. And the system could even remember that year to year so next year they'll be preselected and if you haven't taken/discharged anything you can just nextnextnext to whatever section comes after that.
