Hi --
I am using Windows 7 and Google Chrome. I can get form 1040 on my screen and fill it out. I want to save it and reclaim it later with the infor that I have entered. No matter what I do I cannot reclaim the form with my infor. With such a brief explanation can somebody give me any help. Thank you. Bob

I guess you remember me because I have so much trouble. Thank you. I am still having trouble with my IRS forms but maybe I will work it out. I got it right yesterday but today I can't remember how I did it. Old age is catching up with me. I will not get a refund BUT I will not pay any taxes!!!

Go back to my first post on this problem and see if you can offer a suggestion. Thanks Bob

If the info in the file is still there what happens if you rite clik it and select Save As ? ?

Bob, go back to your second post where you said " I finely figured out that I had to download the page." Yes, you have to download the form and save it on your computer. Then you should be able to open it your PDF reader and type entries in the boxes and save it with those entries retained and view-able the next the you open the form.
By the way, did you download your form from irs.gov or somewhere else? I suggest you get it from irs.gov.

Thanks for your reply. Yes I get the form from gov. I get the form on my monitor and enter infor. I then click on "download". Another page comes up with "save" on it. There is a space that has "1040" in it. I think I am supposed to delete that and give a name. I do that and go to "download" and it is there but I open it it is a lot of printing that means nothing to me. From then on I am lost. You said to save it on your computer. Where? you said I should be able to open it your PDF reader. Where is that? Be easy I'm not to smart. Thanks for your time Bob.

Bob, if you know someone who knows more about using computers than you that you could ask to show you how to download, save, and open that IRS form, that would be much easier than trying to get help online. I mean no offense, but your computer knowledge is so limited that trying to explain to you how to do things via a forum discussion is very cumbersome.

You are right. I don't have any help so i just try things and once in a while I get lucky!! My problem is when you use terms I don't know what it means I am lost. I am not offended and I understand. Thanks for the help I have gotten over the years. Bob

Last I heard IRS laying off people may be going out of business soon.

Do you not know what the IRS is? It is part of the federal government and performs a vital government function. It isn't going out of business. ::)
