What is adjusted gross income (AGI)?

This is a number on your tax return that's calculated by adding your total taxable income (from wages, investments, self-employment income, etc.), and then subtracting a few deductions for things like traditional IRA contributions, student loan interest, HSA deductions, etc.

FreeTaxUSA will calculate your AGI for you, as you enter all of your income and deductions. Your AGI will change as you enter various income and deductions, so be sure to enter all of your information.

You'll also find your AGI on Form 1040 Line 11a.
