Here are a few tax mistakes you should try and avoid this tax season:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Grammatical errors – Make sure your name is spelled correctly and that you used the correct Social Security Number.<\/li>\n
  2. Taking the Wrong Education Write-off – Always consider whether an education credit or the tuition and fees deduction would be more beneficial for you.<\/li>\n
  3. Investments – Double and triple check your cost basis in investments when reporting a gain or a loss.<\/li>\n
  4. IRA Contributions – Do not forget to report your contributions to a traditional IRA.<\/li>\n
  5. Home Office – If you have a home office, you may be able to deduct some of those expenses using the home office deduction.<\/li>\n
  6. Overlooking Donations – Try to remember every place that you donated money to, especially since some charities are now emailing receipts instead of printing them out.<\/li>\n
  7. Deductions for Items in Front of You – Don’t forget to deduct any tax preparation fees, financial advisor fees, and safety deposit box fees.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
