This income report might be your only chance to catch some many tax evasion scams in IRS's 8862. Do I need to send copies of my records to IRS? You don't need to send IRS a copy of the documents you used to report this income to them. For example, you don't need to send over the W-2, 2nd page of your Form W-2, or Form SS-4, just the information your taxpayer identification number (TIN) shows. If you send IRS the information of the deceased person, the IRS can't use it to create their database; you should send them all the information from all of your documents. Do I need to send IRS records? When you submit a Form 8862, you don't need to send any of these to the IRS: the name of the deceased person(s), and The TIN of one of the deceased person(s). Do I need to send these to the Social Security Administration (SSA)? If your spouse died, and you want to claim him as a dependent, you should send SSA records to get a copy of the deceased's birth certificate. You can also send SSA information on the deceased's date of death, death certificate, or death certification. Do I send them to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)? If you're the surviving spouse of a service member killed in action, you must file an 8862 with VA. You don't need to send records to the SSA or the IRS.

The IRS cannot verify the information on the form if it doesn't include all the information that's required. If you receive a form that contains inaccurate information, you can't file a Form 8862 for the year 2017, and may be subject to penalties.

(This rule applies even if this is your first or second form 8862.) When you replace any incomplete information, you must wait at least 30 days before filing another Form 8862.

There are about 3.4 million U.S. taxpayers who prepare and file this form. How many of them fill out “form 8862”—the one that asks about income at the end of the year? About half of the people who fill out this form are not filing a tax return, according to IRS data. For example, of the 15 million returns filed for 2017, about half (1.9 million) could possibly be filed without a W-2. And this doesn't mean their income is not reported if they're not filing a tax return. Many tax filers, however, are not taking advantage of the current law by not preparing their tax return. The reason isn't because they feel they shouldn't have to, but because IRS requirements are changing. At the end of 2017 the IRS changed the way wages are reported on a Form W-4. Previously the income of those earning just under 50,000 in a given tax year was reported on 1040 forms with three standard deduction categories. The rules for wages over 50,000 were different and reporting was done separately on a Form W-2. For 2017, there's no single amount reporting for wages that falls under the threshold for filing a tax return. Instead, employers will need to choose between three thresholds for wages which they would prefer to use to report their income: 100,000 a year, 200,000 to 499,999, and 1,000,000 or more. Under the new regulations, only earnings between 100,000 and 200,000 are reported on a 1040 form. However, 200,000 to 499,999 is reported on a W-2 form for individuals making 200,000 to 499,999. Individuals earning more than 500,000 must file Form 1040NR.
