It’s that time of year again, so rather than waiting until the last minute, I recommend gathering up your documents earlier this year and beat the rush. It’s not going to be too painful, I promise. Here are some of the things you don’t want to forget about:
1. Medical Expenses – make sure you gather together all of your medical receipts throughout the year and don’t forget that you can medical mileage and meals, too, so it’s a really good idea to write up a log of your medical travel. If you paid premiums on a private benefit plan not covered by your employee, that too can be claimed.
