The first thing is to get your paperwork in order. You know what's generally going to be asked from you. First, start with all the government forms that you already received. A W-2, 1099, interest statements—any of those forms that you get in the mail, you want to pull those together. Second, if you have a business or other types of income that come in, you want to make sure that you've tracked all of the income and expenses that are associated with that so that when it's time to file your return, that's all in one place for you.
