10 Tips for Doing Your Taxes Yourself

CHECK AND DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR RETURN

Before you drop that tax return in the mail or hit submit when e-filing, make sure that you’ve checked the figures you’ve entered when filing your return. A mistake can mean a filing error that could give you an over inflated refund you’ll have to pay back later.

 

FILE ON TIME

Even if you owe an amount you cannot pay in full by tax day, it’s important to file on time and to pay as much as you can. Doing so will allow you to avoid a late filing penalty and to minimize interest charges on any unpaid balance. If you cannot pay your taxes in full, you can request an installment agreement from the IRS.
