Prepare before filing
Good tax preparation starts with complete records and clear questions.
Organized documents help reduce delays, explain the numbers on the return, and create a better foundation for next year. We guide you through what to collect and what needs a closer review.
01Report the complete income picture
Gather W-2s, 1099s, investment forms, retirement distributions, marketplace forms, and business or rental records.
02Document credits and deductions
Bring dependent, childcare, education, home, charitable, medical, mileage, and business-expense records that may be relevant.
03Plan beyond filing day
Review withholding, estimated payments, recordkeeping, and major life or business changes that could affect the next tax year.
