Why the details matter
Deductions and credits are not one-size-fits-all. Income, filing status, dependents, education, housing, work, and other facts can change what is relevant and what records are needed.
Topics to discuss
A preparer can help you identify which categories deserve attention without assuming that you qualify before reviewing the facts.
- Dependents and child-related information
- Education expenses and related forms
- Self-employment or work-related records
- Retirement, investment, or other income
- Major life events during the tax year
Bring supporting records
Keep receipts, statements, forms, and prior returns organized. Clear documentation helps a consultation stay focused and reduces avoidable back-and-forth.
