Purpose of Schedule
Use Schedule 1 if any of the following apply. You had over $1,500 of taxable interest (fill in Part I). You received interest from a seller-financed mortgage and the buyer used the property as a personal residence (fill in Part I). You are claiming the exclusion of interest from series EE or I U.S. savings bonds issued after 1989 (fill in Part I). You received interest as a nominee (fill in Part I). You had over $1,500 of ordinary dividends or you received ordinary dividends as a nominee (fill in Part II). If you need more space to list your interest or ordinary dividends, attach separate statements TIP that are the same size as Schedule 1. Use the same format as lines 1 and 5, but show your totals on Schedule 1. Be sure to put your name and social security number on the statements and attach them at the end of your return.

If you received interest as a nominee, you must give the actual owner a Form 1099-INT TIP unless the owner is your spouse. You must also file a Form 1096 and a Form 1099-INT with the IRS. For more details, see the General Instructions for Forms 1099, 1098, 5498, and W-2G and Instructions for Forms 1099-INT and 1099-OID.

Line 3
Did you cash series EE or I U.S. savings bonds in 2008 that were issued after 1989? If you did and you paid qualified higher education expenses in 2008 for yourself, your spouse, or your dependents, you may be able to exclude part or all of the interest on those bonds. See Form 8815 for details.

If you received a Form 1099-DIV that includes ordinary dividends you received as a nominee (that is, in your name, but the ordinary dividends actually belong to someone else), report the total on line 5. Do this even if you later distributed some or all of this income to others. Under your last entry on line 5, put a subtotal of all ordinary dividends listed on line 5. Below this subtotal, enter "Nominee Distribution" and show the total ordinary dividends you received as a nominee. Subtract this amount from the subtotal and enter the result on line 6. If you received dividends as a nominee, you must give the actual owner a Form 1099-DIV TIP unless the owner is your spouse. You must also file a Form 1096 and a Form 1099-DIV with the IRS.
