Do your own income tax online
More than 43.6 million Americans prepared and e-filed their own income tax returns in 2013, up 4 percent from the year before, according to the IRS. In addition to being more affordable than a storefront or accountant, online and mobile solutions have made doing your own taxes exceptionally easy and fast. If you can’t or don’t want to use CreditKarma, there’s still another option. As the IRS points out, people whose income is about $66,000 can still do taxes online via free fillable forms. Yes, we said fillable forms. It’s kind of like doing your taxes on paper, but the forms do some basic calculations for you.
