What Is This Form
Form 1040 (2013) is the main federal tax return used by U.S. individuals to report income, claim deductions and credits, calculate tax owed, and determine any refund. It covers wages, self-employment, investments, rental income, and other taxable earnings for the 2013 tax year accurately and properly.
Late Filers
If you missed the April 15, 2014, deadline, you may still file Form 1040 for 2013 to reduce ongoing IRS penalties.
Multiple Income Sources
Use Form 1040 to report 2013 wages, freelance earnings, investments, rental income, unemployment compensation, and other taxable income sources accurately.
Itemizing Deductions
Taxpayers with qualifying expenses, such as mortgage interest or charitable donations, may use Schedule A instead of claiming the standard deduction.
Claiming 2013 Credits
Eligible taxpayers may claim 2013 credits, including the Earned Income Credit or Child Tax Credit, on original or amended returns.
IRS Compliance
Filing a 2013 return helps create an IRS compliance record and may reduce risks of notices, liens, or collection action.
Citizens Abroad / Military
U.S. citizens abroad and active military members may qualify for special filing extensions or foreign income exclusions using Form 2555.
Eligibility
Form 1040 (2013) is required for U.S. taxpayers whose gross income met or exceeded the IRS filing threshold for their age and filing status during the 2013 tax year, including those filing late to establish a compliance record or reduce penalties.
Late Filers
Anyone who missed the extended October 15, 2014, deadline should file a 2013 return now to stop failure-to-file penalties and resolve balances.
Multiple Income Sources
If you earned wages, freelance income, dividends, rental payments, or other taxable compensation in 2013, Form 1040 reports every source.
Itemizing Deductions
Taxpayers whose qualifying expenses exceeded the 2013 standard deduction should attach Schedule A to claim the full allowable itemized deduction amount.
Claiming 2013 Credits
If eligible for 2013 credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit or education credits, file Form 1040 to claim available amounts.
IRS Compliance
Anyone with IRS notices, unfiled tax years, or resolution agreements should file a 2013 return to document compliance and address requirements.
Citizens Abroad / Military
U.S. citizens abroad and military personnel deployed outside the country in 2013 may qualify for extensions or foreign income exclusions.
Step-by-Step
Follow these six steps to prepare and submit your 2013 federal income tax return accurately. Paper filing is required — e-filing is no longer available for this tax year.
1. Gather Your Documents Before Starting
Collect your W-2s, 1099s, Social Security numbers for all household members, records of deductible expenses, and any IRS notices received. Having these organized before you start prevents errors and reduces the need to refile.
2. Choose the Correct Filing Status
Your filing status determines your 2013 tax rate, standard deduction, and eligibility for certain credits. Available statuses include single, married filing jointly, married filing separately, head of household, and qualifying widow(er) with dependent child. For 2013, legally married same-sex couples were recognized federally after Windsor, but domestic partnerships and civil unions were excluded. Choose carefully to avoid return-wide errors.
3. Report All Income on the Correct Lines
Report each income type on the correct 2013 Form 1040 line: wages on Line 7, interest on 8a, dividends on 9a, refunds on 10, business income on 12, capital gains on 13, retirement distributions on 15a to 16b, rental income on 17, and unemployment on 19. For 2013, unemployment compensation was fully taxable under IRS rules.
4. Calculate Adjusted Gross Income (AGI)
Subtract above-the-line adjustments from total gross income to calculate AGI on Line 37. Eligible adjustments include student loan interest, tuition and fees, educator expenses, self-employed health insurance, and IRA contributions. AGI affects credit eligibility and deduction phase-outs, while the Additional Medicare Tax uses modified AGI, which may differ from regular AGI.
5. Choose Your Deductions and Apply Exemptions
Compare Schedule A itemized deductions with the 2013 standard deduction: $6,100 for single or married filing separately, $12,200 for married filing jointly or qualifying widow(er), and $8,950 for head of household. High-income filers faced Pease limits, and each personal exemption was $3,900. Claim the larger deduction to reduce taxable income.
6. Report the Net Investment Income Tax [2013 Only]
The 3.8% net investment income tax began in 2013 for taxpayers with investment income above MAGI limits. Use Form 8960 if thresholds apply, then attach it to your return.
Filing Deadline — April 15, 2014
The 2013 tax deadline was April 15, 2014, with no weekend or holiday shift. Taxpayers using Form 4868 received an automatic extension until October 15, 2014. Returns filed after that date are late, and interest begins accruing on unpaid balances after April 15, continuing until payment in full to the IRS, even with future filing action.
Refund Deadline — Likely Expired
Under the IRS three-year rule, the 2013 refund window generally closed April 15, 2017. Taxpayers who filed Form 4868 and submitted it by October 15, 2014, may have had until October 15, 2017. Because refund claims are time-sensitive, consult a tax preparer or tax expert before filing with questions about possible exceptions or credits for your return.
Processing Time — Allow Several Months
Prior-year paper returns usually take six weeks or longer, and complex 2013 returns may take several months. Balance-due filers should not wait for processing before paying, because interest and penalties continue. Use accurate records, tax software, or a tax preparer to review income, property, and deduction details before mailing, keeping copies safely stored at home for reference.
E-Filing Restriction — Paper Mail Required
E-filing and tax software transmission are permanently closed for 2013, so every return must be printed, signed, and mailed. Use certified mail with a return receipt as proof, and keep copies of all pages, attachments, and receipts. For security, confirm IRS pages show a locked padlock icon before downloading forms or reviewing mailing instructions online.
Missing W-2s or Tax Records for 2013?
Late filers often lack original documents from years prior. The IRS and Social Security Administration maintain records that can help you reconstruct your 2013 income and file an accurate return.
IRS Wage & Income Transcript
An IRS Wage & Income Transcript lists employer-reported wages, 1099 income, interest, dividends, and other third-party records, giving a person accurate ways to reconstruct 2013 taxable income with peace of mind.
IRS Account Transcript
An IRS account transcript shows payments made, penalties assessed, credits applied, and IRS adjustments, helping the user understand the 2013 filing history, current balance, and possible next steps before resolving questions later.
Social Security Administration
SSA earnings records show wages reported to Social Security for 2013 and may substitute for missing W-2s, making sense when employer documents are unavailable after a school or job change.
Contact Prior Employers
Contacting prior employers may help recover W-2s or pay stubs because payroll records are retained for years, offering another example when IRS or SSA records are incomplete, and user records are limited.
Do not estimate income figures — use IRS transcripts to match records precisely and reduce the risk of IRS follow-up notices or discrepancies.
Missing W-2s or Tax Records?
You can still complete your return even without original records
Penalties and interest on an unpaid 2013 tax balance have accrued since April 15, 2014. Filing now stops the failure-to-file penalty from increasing, though payment-related penalties and interest continue until the balance is fully paid.
Failure-to-File Penalty
(5% per month, up to 25%)
This penalty applies to unpaid 2013 taxes and accrues from the original due date. It reaches 25% after five months, so filing before the end of the delay helps limit additional costs.
Failure-to-Pay Penalty
(0.5% per month + interest)
After filing, any unpaid balance continues accruing a 0.5% monthly penalty plus interest until paid in full. Paying promptly reduces total spending, prevents the tax debt from growing, and helps bring the account closer to resolution before penalties reach the end.
Penalty Abatement Options
(First-Time Abatement & Reasonable Cause)
First-Time Abatement may apply if you have a clean compliance history. Reasonable cause relief may help when serious circumstances caused late filing, but a tax professional should review eligibility before submission.
Filing late is still better than not filing. When both penalties apply, the failure-to-file rate drops to 4.5%, but remains much costlier than failure-to-pay alone.
These are the most frequent errors that cause IRS processing delays, rejected returns, or missed credits on 2013 tax returns.
- Using the wrong tax year form — Submitting the wrong-year Form 1040 is invalid because 2013 line numbers, schedules, and filing rules differ from those of other tax years.
- Missing Form 8960 or Form 8959 / 2013-specific schedules — Attach Form 8960 or Form 8959 if applicable, since both were new for 2013. Missing forms can delay processing or trigger IRS notices.
- Wrong filing status label — The 2013 return recognized legally married same-sex couples for joint filing; outdated filing status can cause incorrect tax rates and deductions.
- Applying Pease limitations incorrectly — High-income filers subject to the 2013 Pease limitation must reduce itemized deductions properly to avoid overstated deductions and understated tax liability.
- Treating unemployment compensation as partially tax-free — For 2013, all unemployment compensation is fully taxable. Excluding any portion is an error that may trigger an IRS adjustment or notice.
- Assuming a refund is still available — The 2013 refund window closed April 15, 2017, so filing now generally will not produce a refund without professional confirmation.
- Missing or incorrect Social Security numbers — Every SSN on the return must match IRS records exactly. A mismatch can halt processing and delay resolution of your filing for weeks or months.
- Unsigned return — A paper return without a valid signature is invalid and will be returned unprocessed; both spouses must sign jointly filed returns before mailing.
- Missing attachments — Attach W-2s, 1099s, Form 8960, Form 8959, and other schedules to the paper return to prevent delays or IRS correspondence.
What is IRS Form 1040 (2013) used for?
U.S. individuals use IRS Form 1040 (2013) to report income, calculate tax owed or refund due, and claim deductions or credits. It is based on wages, self-employment income, investments, rental income, and other taxable activity from the 2013 tax year.
Can I still file a 2013 tax return?
Yes, you can still file a 2013 federal tax return, but the refund window has generally expired. Filing may still be important if you owe tax, have IRS notices, need compliance records, or must resolve an outstanding balance with the IRS.
Is e-filing available for a 2013 tax return?
No, e-filing is unavailable for 2013 tax returns. You must print the correct 2013 Form 1040, sign it, attach the required documents, and mail it to the IRS. Keep proof of mailing, plus copies of the full return and supporting records submitted.
What were the standard deduction amounts for 2013?
The 2013 standard deduction was $6,100 for single or married filing separately, $12,200 for married filing jointly or qualifying widow(er), and $8,950 for head of household. These amounts were important when deciding whether itemized deductions made more sense than the standard deduction.
What is the Additional Medicare Tax for 2013?
The Additional Medicare Tax was a 0.9% tax introduced in 2013 on wages, self-employment income, and railroad retirement income above certain MAGI thresholds. It is calculated on Form 8959 and attached to Form 1040 when applicable based on filing status and income.
What new taxes applied to 2013 returns?
Two new taxes applied for 2013: the 0.9% additional Medicare tax and the 3.8% net investment income tax. These rules affected higher-income taxpayers and required separate forms, making accurate filing especially important for investments, business income, and other taxable activity.
Can same-sex married couples file jointly on a 2013 return?
Yes, legally married same-sex couples were recognized for federal tax purposes beginning with the 2013 tax year after the Windsor ruling. Eligible couples could file as married filing jointly or married filing separately, but domestic partnerships and civil unions were not treated the same.
What should I do if I owe a 2013 tax balance?
Suppose you owe a 2013 tax balance. File as soon as possible to stop the failure-to-file penalty from increasing. Pay what you can to reduce interest and failure-to-pay charges, then consider a tax professional for payment plans, penalty relief, or account questions.
