  • Your Filing status is single and
  • You did not check the box "Someone can claim you as a dependent" and
  • You did not check any "Age/Blindness" indicators and
  • Schedule A is not attached to your return

If you previously added Schedule A, the schedule did not attach and transmit with your return.
