Tax Time Mistakes

Tax time, have you met the deadline? If you are one of the many procrastinators, it’s crucial that you don’t make a mistake. Unfortunately, if you haven’t been doing the proper bookkeeping, you’re at a high risk of making a mistake, especially if you’re feeling rushed and stressed about the tax filing process.

So, what’s the biggest tax mistake people make? Surprisingly, it’s often the little things that go wrong. One of the main mistakes people make is listing their social security numbers incorrectly or not listing them at all. The IRS reports getting thousands of tax returns without proper social security numbers, a mistake that can lead to late fees and interest charges.
