The quickest way is to ask your employer in 2004, otherwise you need to request your return from the IRS: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=110571,00.html

Some discrepancy has been found by the social security office on my 2004 income tax return. I need a copy of my 2004 filing as I find I do not have one at home. Where do I go to get this and how much time does it take? I am due back at the SS office in a week.

Just go to the IRS website and look for Forms. It may take a bit of probing, but you’ll probably find it. If not, there’s a place to ask them.

I need to get a 1040 form from 2007. I did not file taxes that year because I only worked a little bit. I have no idea how to get it. Do I fill out the form from the IRS to just get that one 1040? Does my employer have it or would they be able to get it? Please any info would really help.

Whether or not she’s lived with you, the school uses your tax information to determine how much financial aid she can get. Even if you will not be helping her at all financially, the school is going to determine an EFC (estimated family contribution) based on your income, which is then deducted from the overall cost of tuition. The difference is what she will likely be eligible for in financial aid (i.e. student loans).
