Taxes aren't fun. Preparing them is stressful.

Even if you understand that paying taxes is an integral part of keeping our country running, there is no reason to pay more than you owe.
Filing taxes in the US is voluntary. That doesn't mean that you can choose not to file and not suffer severe and painful consequences. It does mean that it is your responsibility to submit a proper return each year. You get to choose how much taxes are withheld from your pay, too, which is a huge part in determining if you will owe the taxman or get a refund when you file.

It's your responsibility to understand tax issues, so you avoid problems and submit tax returns that take advantage of every deduction you're entitled to take—Bills.com shares tax tips and advice to help you understand critical tax issues. 

Whether you're trying to understand the tax implications of withdrawing money from a retirement account or selling your house, Bills.com presents clear information to help you understand complicated subjects. While it is wise to rely on the advice of a licensed tax professional, use our articles as a starting point, so you know what questions to ask to avoid tax problems and get the best results.
