Tax Season—Forms and Resources

It’s that time of year again! Are you looking for tax forms?  You can find federal forms on the IRS website here, as well as free filing options, tax preparation help, and IRS publications and instructions. Remember: the deadline to file your return is April 15, but you can still apply for an automatic extension of time.  For taxpayers whose income falls below $60,000, the IRS also provides tax preparation software to help you file your taxes for free.

If you are looking for New York forms, you can find them here.  If you need forms from other states, there are links to all state tax forms from the Federation of Tax Administrators, with all links updated for the 2014 filing season.  The Journal of Accountancy has also published a filing season quick guide for the 2014 tax year.  Taxhelp.org provides additional information relating to Tax Help for Students.
