The Taxman Cometh

Two weeks until April 17 — this year’s extended deadline for filing taxes in the United States. Make the most of your deductions and minimize your taxes by starting now. Collect your receipts, forms, and other paperwork and get to business.

Remember to review new taxation laws to see if you might profit from them. Don’t forget to take advantage of this year’s tax break on phone tax.

Take care to avoid these common tax mishaps which can flag the IRS to audit you. If you receive a refund, be sure to make it count.
