Things You Can Do to Prepare for the 2017 Tax Season
Get your tax records in order now.
Dig up and organize all the receipts you may need to claim your tax deductions. Review your 2015 income tax return and any relevant records you will need to reference when filing your 2016 return.
Set aside some money now.
Since tax refund delays are expected, you certainly don't want to be shorthanded financially when you'd normally expect to receive a nice refund check. So, set aside a small portion of your income now so that you'll be prepared to handle any bills or expenses in the spring while waiting for your tax refund.
Consider working with a professional.
Because of the impending changes to filing deadlines, it's often best to put your tax-filing needs into the hands of an experienced professional accountant. Not only will this guarantee that you'll meet every deadline, but also you'll know that you're taking full advantage of all the tax breaks you qualify for to significantly reduce your tax liability.
