Tax Return Mistakes To Avoid

There are many different things that you will want to remember when filing your 2010 taxes, to avoid an audit or additional problems after you submit your return.

The first is to make sure that you claim every single source of income that you have. This can be many different things that you do not think of, such as babysitting, garage sales, having a roommate, or if you do any freelance work on the side of your regular job. You will also want to have all documentation and paperwork for these different things, so there is no confusion when you need to provide documentation. People also make mistakes when they calculate their tax forms, so to avoid any hassles you want to double and triple check all of your calculations.

You never want to be audited by the IRS, especially if you have done something wrong, because there are severe consequences. Double-check your work, and your documentations, to avoid and 2010 tax return mistakes.
