Expect to see changes to your 1040 forms, and how you report information. Became aware of the changes when researching how my 2018 taxes will work out. The 1040 form is only one page now, seeming to be made simpler. However, if you have income beyond w2 wages, they added another layer of forms (sheets). All the schedules seem to be the same, but everything is in draft form, and format is in flux right now.
IRS better kick it into high gear to finish up all the forms and update the instruction pamphlets to be ready for tax time. The instructions for the schedule forms still have call outs referring back to the old 1040 line items.
I found the "simpler" version to be a total mess due to having other than w2 wages to report.
