- Organize.
Collect tax information sent by your employer and your
financial institutions. Keep all tax-related receipts in one place and collect
documentation for deductions. Have last year's return on hand. Pick up the
appropriate forms from a post office or download them from the our
website.
Developing a system to keep tax information organized all year makes it easier to get started.
- Don't procrastinate.
Overcome the urge to wait until April 14 to finally
finish and mail your tax return. You're more likely to make a mistake or overlook
possible tax savings if you're rushing to meet the April 15 deadline.
- New Complications
Start your taxes early if you've experienced a major life change that might affect your taxes,
like a move, marriage, birth or divorce. If you've changed your name, make sure the Social
Security Administration knows so that your Social Security number matches your new name.
- Check your math
Review your return to make sure it's complete and accurate. Double-check Social
Security numbers and figures copied from tax worksheets and schedules. Make sure you've
added and subtracted correctly and signed the return.
- Consider electronic services
Make taxes more efficient by filing your return electronically. The IRS will immediately
catch math errors and other simple mistakes in e-filed returns, sending them back to
be quickly fixed. Even if you don't file electronically, speed a refund by arranging to
have it deposited directly into your bank account. Or, file your return early and delay a payment to the
IRS until April 15 by arranging an automatic bank withdrawal.
- Visit the IRS online
The IRS Web site holds a wealth of information about tax laws and filing requirements.
A new feature called 1040 Central helps taxpayers navigate the site and find the information, instructions and
forms they need.
- Visit the Get IRS Publication 17
The publication, called "Your Federal Income Tax," is the single best source for help with
common questions. It outlines important tax law changes for the year and walks through each part of the tax return.
Download it from here
or order it by calling the IRS at 1 (800) 829-3676 (1-800-TAX-FORM).
