I have found that the only real benefit of doing taxes is when it is when is completed. What a pain it is to gather when you are unorganized and genuinely incapable of changing this to a type A personality.
Despite losing profitability in a business and have lost pay at a job, I am still not getting a return. Boy there is something to be said for living at a time in the US when taxes are historically low and I still can’t manage to get a return.
Such is life, but managing taxes to an actual return with be the 2010 goal
