I need to send my parent’s federal tax return in but I can’t find it in my parents folder of tax documents. Could somebody show me what it looks like? I tried googling it on google image but it sometimes shows up as 1040 form.

Yes it’s basically the same thing. All 1040′s are tax returns, but all tax returns may not be a basic 1040, there are a few different kinds of returns people can file depending on their particular situation. Others can be the 1040EZ, 1040A, etc.

Please explain your situation. Why do you need to send it in? Are you sure they did not already send it in, by April 15, when it was due? In any event, you need help from someone who understands at least the most basic info about taxes.
Form 1040 is the Federal Tax Return.
