Forms and instructions

New this year—some of our form instructions are now webpages!

You may notice we've turned some of our form instructions into webpages and rewritten them for plain language.

Web instructions are more accessible, easier to understand, and easier to navigate. You can:

  • use CTRL + F to search for specific content in the instructions
  • find the forms and resources you need with hyperlinks—the link you select will open in a new window so you can easily return to the instructions
  • use bookmarks to navigate—the back arrow at the top left in your browser will take you back to the section you were reading

As you use these new instructions, complete our survey to let us know what you think.

If you find you still prefer to print your instructions, you can. Use the Printer-friendly PDF link at the top of the instructions to save or print.

Important note: Some of the forms and instructions on this Web site do not reflect recent changes in Tax Department services and contact information. Please see Form TP-64, Notice to Taxpayers Requesting Information or Assistance from the Tax Department, for updated information if you are using any documents not revised since December, 2010.
