Tax Tip
Before filing, organize paperwork and establish a specific place for all incoming tax documents, like W-2 forms, as they arrive in the new year. You may need to track down others. You’ll also need Social Security numbers, birth dates and other information for everyone included in the return.

Not sure of all the documentation you’ll need? Contact a MilTax consultant – they can help you figure out which documents you’ll need to file for your specific situation.
