- What is this form about? Schedule B is a supplemental form associated with Form 1040 that U.S. taxpayers use to report interest and ordinary dividend income. It provides spaces for detailing both tax-exempt and taxable interest received, as well as ordinary dividends. Completing Schedule B is necessary if a taxpayer receives interest or dividend income above certain thresholds or from specific sources. The totals from Schedule B are then transferred to the main Form 1040 to be included in the taxpayer's overall income calculation for the year.
