2018 was supposed to be post card year.. the return was real hard to follow.. numbers just appeared, indented, other places, and you had to hunt where certain numbers came from.  2018 was the worst for following the flow on the return.

Yeah, that was the dumbest tax form I've seen in my lifetime.  Do some math in your head based on numbers on this form and one or two other forms and just write the number down here.  Fortunately most of my clients are of the "where do I sign" variety.  There were a few I just had to give up and say "they don't let me make the tax forms, so this is what we're stuck with."
