As April 15th approaches, many of us will be rushing to complete (or even start for those serious procrastinators) our tax returns. Sound familiar to you? Well don’t  worry you’re not alone: There is an estimated one in five tax payers that will wait until the final week to file their tax returns.

Here are some last minute tips:
-Get Organized: Make sure you have all the necessary documents before you start (ex. W-2, Forms 1099, any other forms of income or unemployment collected, ect)
-Visit: www.irs.gov and your state’s website to download forms and directions. If you don’t think you can complete it in time, file for an extension.
-Be thorough: Make sure to include any kind of deductions from child care expenses, charitable contributions(cash and non-cash) , moving expenses, undergraduate education, or home improvement. Double check any amounts to make sure the information is accurate.
