How do I go about filing my 2014 tax returns?

Step one - wait until early 2015.

You mean 2013 return. You fill out a form 1040 and file it.... you can do so for free on Turbo Tax

You have to gather all your info.

You don't tell enough information about yourself.

I will assume that you have a job. Then you will receive your W-2 from your employer.

If you don't have a house, or kids, or income investment, you can file the 1040-EZ

It is one page or so.

You look at your W-2, then fill in the blanks.

google IRS 1040-EZ form. And you can download it.

You should just use a program like TurboTax that walks you through everything step by step.

since 2014 just only began you might want to wait a year

if you are referring to your 2013 taxes you might go to www.irs.gov and find publication 17 it will help you

I would say get your paperwork and such in order and go online for a tax service. Paid or free

And are you asking about the 2013 tax year 1040 FIT tax return that would have to be filled out and filed during the 2014 tax filing season for the 2013 1040 FIT return.

Your state website should have some information available for this purpose also during the 2014 tax filing season.

Go to the www.irs.gov website and at the top under HOT TOPICS choose Free File: File your return for free or scroll down on the right side of the page and choose Free File or Efile

VITA

The VITA Program generally offers free tax help to people who make $51,000 or less and need assistance in preparing their own tax returns. IRS-certified volunteers provide free basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals in local communities. They can inform taxpayers about special tax credits for which they may qualify such as Earned Income Tax Credit, Child Tax Credit, and Credit for the Elderly or the Disabled. VITA sites are generally located at community and neighborhood centers, libraries, schools, shopping malls, and other convenient locations.

TCE

The TCE Program offers free tax help for all with priority assistance to people who are 60 years of age and older, specializing in questions about pensions and retirement issues unique to seniors. IRS-certified volunteers who provide tax counseling are often retired individuals associated with non-profit organizations that receive grants from the IRS.

Self-Help Tax Preparation

In addition to traditional face-to-face tax preparation, the IRS is offering a self-assistance service at many VITA and TCE locations. If individuals have a simple tax return and need a little help or do not have access to a computer, they can visit one of the participating tax preparation sites and an IRS-certified volunteer will guide them through the process.

It is extremely important that each person use the correct Social Security Number. The most accurate information is usually located on your original Social Security card.

This form should be submitted to the nearest Social Security Administration Office.

If you or your dependent is not eligible to get a Social Security Number, you may need an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
