It's that time of the year we all probably wish we managed better. Pretty sure most people say they'll do it better next year, be more prepared, keep all receipts and supporting documentation nicely filed and ready to take to the accountant or to help with preparing your own tax return.
Whilst I'd love to provide you with a list of tips and tricks to be more prepared for this time of year, truth is, you'd probably read it and think that's great and probably not think about it again until next year and really, I'm not the best person to be able to do that.
Maybe it's just one of those things in life that we just have to accept. Don't get me wrong, I'm someone who tries to be more organised or learn from not doing things as best as possible but having documents ready for tax time is not something I'm good at.
Instead of worrying about it during the year, I just put everything in the same place (when I remember) so that at least it's altogether. That at least reduces the amount of time I need to spend to find receipts or get things organised and that's enough for me......I do the best I can and hopefully mange as best as possible when it comes to completing the process.
When you're cursing and thinking about how you hate getting doing all that is required to complete your tax return, instead think about the tax refund you're going to collect and what you can do with that....that'll make it all worthwhile!
