New to Brokerage/Taxable Investing--trying to understand taxes

[icyappraiser]

2018 is the first year I invested in a taxable account (Vanguard). I was doing some reading around but I'm having a little trouble understanding the tax implications. I'm hoping someone here can help explain to a newbie on this.

I invested $17k into a taxable account this year but did not withdraw any of the money or sell any investments. Dividends are set to automatically re-invest.

I have a 1099 from Vanguard showing:

Total Ordinary Dividends: $454.14
Qualified Dividends: $426.94
Interest Income: $0.00

Do I owe any tax due to this?
If yes, on the $454.14 or the $426.94?
Does this affect my ability to use the 1040EZ form? Otherwise I would be able to use this form (taxable income <$100k, filing single, only ordinary wage income, std deduction)

Yes, the dividends are taxable whether they're reinvested or not. Qualified dividends are taxed at long term capital gains rates which range from 0-20% depending on overall income. No qualified dividends ($454.14 - $426.94 = $27.20) are taxed at ordinary income tax rates.

Didn't they eliminate the 1040EZ with the 2018 tax reform?

Yes - it's my understanding as well there is no longer a 1040EZ form.
