I have a Form 1040-V and want to pay with a credit card. There's no place on the form for the card number. Where do I put the credit card information?

My husband died in December 2014. I was told to file jointly for 2014 and 2015. Now, as I'm filling out my taxes, I want to confirm the correct filing status.

I'm curious about my options for filing taxes as married but separate. I was on strike from my company from February to July 2015 and took distributions from my IRA account. I also had loans from my employer's 401k account that defaulted due to an accelerated amortization schedule I couldn't pay. I'm aware of the tax on early distributions from retirement accounts, which are considered income. Should I file married but separate? My wife's tax obligation is smaller than mine, but if we file jointly, it would increase. Looking for advice.

For a sole proprietor, what are the top ways to reduce the amount of taxes I have to pay each year?

I took advantage of the IRA Saver's Credit in 2013 and 2014 when my income was low enough to allow for the maximum 50% of IRA contributions. Last year, at age 60, I began drawing early distributions. It seems I no longer qualify for the credit because the amounts I drew out exceeded my 2015 contributions. Is this correct, and does the credit primarily benefit low-income contributors who haven't started withdrawing?
