Fillable IRS Form 1040 Schedule B – Interest & Dividend Income

Schedule B (Form 1040) is the IRS worksheet used to report taxable interest and ordinary dividends. Whether you received a single 1099‑INT or dozens of dividend statements, the fillable PDF on this page lets you enter the data directly in your browser—no extra software required.

What Is Schedule B and Who Needs It?

Schedule B is attached to the individual income tax return (Form 1040) when you have:

• More than $1,500 of taxable interest or dividends, or
• Foreign accounts, trusts, or other financial assets that require reporting.

Even if you are below the $1,500 threshold, you may still need to file Schedule B if the IRS specifically asks for it.

Key Sections of the Fillable PDF

The online form mirrors the official IRS layout:

1. Part I – Interest Income: List each payer, amount, and any tax‑exempt interest.
2. Part II – Ordinary Dividends: Record dividend payer, amount, and qualified dividend status.
3. Part III – Foreign Accounts and Trusts: Answer yes/no questions and provide account details if required.

All fields are editable, with automatic totals that match the paper form.

• Using the wrong tax year PDF – always select the current year’s Schedule B.
