Find the Adjusted Gross Income or AGI

Trouble finding your old AGI or Adjusted Gross Income from your 2008 Tax Return?

You can find last year's AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) on your previous year Federal Income Tax Return on lines 37/38 of Form 1040, lines 21/22 of Form 1040A, or line 4 of Form 1040EZ.

Optionally, if you do not know or cannot retrieve your 2008 AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) or PIN, the IRS has a web page where you can get an IRS Efile Authorization Code/Electronic Filing PIN that will allow you to efile your tax return on efile.com without knowing your 2008 AGI. 

We recommend you get this PIN code so you will not need last year's tax return AGI. Please get your Efile Authorization Code/Electronic Filing PIN here. In order to get this PIN all you need to provide is your name, SSN, 2008 filing status, date of birth, and mailing address.  Once you have your PIN you can enter it into your new efile.com tax return in the space indicated: “Prior Year PIN/Electronic Filing PIN” when efiling your 2009 Tax Return. 

Learn more about the Efile Authorization Code/Electronic Filing PIN.  

If you did not submit your tax return on efile.com please see the link below or call the IRS Telephone Assistance line at 1-800-829-1040.

The IRS will verify your identity and tell you last year's AGI over the phone.
