Documents

What to have ready.
Nothing more.

A starting list for your situation. Your specialist may ask for something else once they review your case.

Your document checklist
  • Identification for you and anyone on your return
  • Income forms such as W-2 or 1099
  • Last year’s return, if you have it
  • Records for expenses you’d like reviewed

FAQ

question marks.

Good questions deserve straightforward answers.
