How much is the fish?
The IRS doesn’t know how much you owe. You may choose to file in different ways, have side gigs, spend money on deductible or credit-eligible expenses, or qualify for certain breaks. It’s your choice to depreciate or carry over certain items. Only you know that your spare room was rented for 5 months or the cost basis for the bitcoin you sold.
if you work one job and have no complications like that - the 1040EZ is what you’re asking for. But still not the government’s role to tell you or sign your name to it.
