    Which Federal tax form do I use 1040 or 1040A? What's the difference between the two
    I have emplyoment income (less than 25k), savings account interest, dividends from stock and a disbursement from closing an inherited IRA-BDA to report.

    I was born in the US, never lived anywhere else.

    I know I have to file a schedules B, D, K ( one stock was a partnership) and form 8949

    But which Federal Tax form do I use and what is the difference between IRS forms 1040 and 1040A?

    The Schedule D and Form 8949 mandates that you file Form 1040; Form 1040A is NOT an option.
