January 24 was the first day to file 2021 returns, so tax time is officially here. It’s shaping up to be another complicated and confusing tax year, so this month, we’re focusing on what you can do to get ahead of the tax time chaos.

We’ve gathered some helpful information about tax deductions, the documents you’ll need to file, accessing some of your documents in your IRS account, and finding a tax preparer who fits your needs.
