Finding the Review Screen

  1. Head to the Review/Print Section:

    • On the left side of your TaxSlayer return, you'll see a menu. Click on Review/Print. This will reveal a dropdown menu with helpful options.

  2. Select Review:

    • From that dropdown, click Review. This whisks you away to the Review screen, your hub for verifying return details.

Verifying Return Details

The Return Review screen is your one-stop shop to confirm all the important numbers on your return. You'll see totals for things like:

  • Adjusted Gross Income (AGI)

  • Taxes

  • Deductions

  • Payments

  • And, most importantly, your Refund/Balance Due amount!

Getting a Detailed Breakdown

Want to dig a little deeper and see exactly where that refund or balance due number comes from? Here's how:

  1. Print Form 1040 (Page 1): TaxSlayer makes it easy to print your forms. Just print the first page of FORM 1040.

  2. Find the Key Lines: Look for these lines on the form:

    • Line 35a: This is where you'll find your refund amount.

    • Line 37: This line shows your balance due amount.
