Form Sources:
Massachusetts usually releases forms for the current tax year between January and April. We last updated Massachusetts Form 1 from the Department of Revenue in January 2024.
Form 1 is a Massachusetts Individual Income Tax form. Like the Federal Form 1040, states each provide a core tax return form on which most high-level income and tax calculations are performed. While some taxpayers with simple returns can complete their entire tax return on this single form, in most cases various other additional schedules and forms must be completed, depending on the taxpayer's individual situation, to create a complete income tax return package.
About the Individual Income Tax
The IRS and most states collect a personal income tax, which is paid throughout the year via tax withholding or estimated income tax payments.
Most taxpayers are required to file a yearly income tax return in April to both the Internal Revenue Service and their state's revenue department, which will result in either a tax refund of excess withheld income or a tax payment if the withholding does not cover the taxpayer's entire liability. Every taxpayer's situation is different - please consult a CPA or licensed tax preparer to ensure that you are filing the correct tax forms!
Historical Past-Year Versions of Massachusetts Form 1
We have a total of thirteen past-year versions of Form 1 in the TaxFormFinder archives, including for the previous tax year. Download past year versions of this tax form as PDFs here:
