4 Quick Tips to Ready Yourself for April 15

  • Locate Last Year’s Tax Return—Previous years’ returns serve as an excellent guide for preparing for the current tax season.
  • Organize Recordkeeping—Start to organize your source documents, including mileage logs, charity receipts, invoices, etc. Avoid scrambling to pull these items together at the last minute.
  • Seize Opportunities to Lower Taxes—For example, if you are self-employed there’s still time to open and fund a SEP IRA (Simplified Employee Pension Individual Retirement Account). You can invest up to 25 percent of your self-employment income or $50,000, whichever is less.
