Yes, it is that time of year again – tax time. You hate it; I know you do, as do I. But it is a necessary evil that you would like to get done, once, the right way. I will give you some common areas to be careful with, as most taxpayers make mistakes in these areas.
Please get your social security number correct! Simple right, but not for many filers. Some of us have a tendency to transpose numbers or write our spouse’s social security by our own name in error.
Check your math, and then check it again. If you use one of the tax filing programs, this becomes much less of an error. I know many of you still fill in your return by hand. Do your math, put the form down, go back and do your math again. It wouldn’t hurt to double check your inputs again also. Some digits get dropped or transposed.
Did you change your name? There are many reasons for someone to change their name. Make sure your have updated this with the Social Security Administration, then enter and spell correctly your name on your return.

Take your time, be careful, then you can forget about this for another year.
