Filing your taxes is no fun and going through all the paperwork, as the tax season comes near, is even worse. Depending on how you handle it, it can be easy and seamless or it can be your worst nightmare. There are a number of steps you can take to ensure you end up in tax heaven.

 

Get Organized

Face it. You cannot file your taxes without paperwork, whether you are doing it online or going to the tax office. You need proper paperwork to go with it. Organize your paperwork. You need

  • Your W-2, showing your annual income.
  • 1099, showing your other earnings.
  • All your cancelled checks and receipts, to support any deductions you may take.

 

Keep all your documents in one place to ensure easy access.

 

Protect Your Identity

This is commonly over-looked by people. Be very careful when giving out your Social security number and Date of birth. Remember, IRS never calls or texts to ask about your Social security number or Date of birth. Be wary of scams, especially around the tax season.

 

Check Before You File

One of the common mistakes people make while filing taxes, is putting down the wrong security number for either themselves or their dependents. Check and recheck before submitting the form.

 

File Your Taxes Online

Filing your taxes online, may seem difficult at first, but if you get the hang of it, you’ll find that it is convenient and easier. You can also get a faster tax refund, if you file online.

 

Be Punctual

Be very punctual when you file your taxes. Otherwise, be prepared to face penalties and interest on the taxes you file.
