Dec 2018

I'm on Social Security so I have control on how much I had deducted so I will be fine. I feel sorry for people who don't have a clue, who take their 1040EZ forms to a tax preparer. These working folks count on their refunds for various reasons.

I have been filing out a 1040A for several years now, doing it by hand to give someone a job going over my return.

I don't have a clue what is going to happen this year. I have heard that filing one's taxes was made more complicated, certainly won't be able to file on a post card.
