            <p>Confident Tax Preparation and Filing: Forms, Credits, and Resources equips you with a clear, step-by-step framework to navigate tax season with accuracy and assurance. Grounded in practical checklists and real documents, the course begins by clarifying program outcomes and setting you up with the essentials—identification, income records, and prior returns—so you can file efficiently from the start. You will master core forms such as W-2s and the most common 1099 types, learn how to match reported income to your return, and avoid frequent data-entry errors and mismatches that can delay processing. The curriculum emphasizes organization: collecting personal and banking details for direct deposit, assembling income and deduction records, and using last year’s return as a completeness guide while safeguarding sensitive data.</p>

<p>Beyond accuracy, the course focuses on maximizing value through credits and deductions that reduce your tax liability. You will explore eligibility, documentation, and coordination nuances for the Child Tax Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit, education credits, and the Saver’s Credit. Commonly overlooked deductions—such as student loan interest, charitable contributions, and self-employment expenses—are covered with concrete recordkeeping practices and decision points for standard deduction versus itemizing. You will also learn to leverage IRS resources, including IRS.gov tools, account transcripts, and the “Where’s My Refund” tracker; evaluate free filing options through IRS Free File, VITA, and TCE; and mitigate risk by avoiding filing errors and understanding audit triggers. Special modules address self-employment, investments, and life events, followed by critical deadlines, post-filing actions, and knowledge checks to reinforce learning—ultimately providing a comprehensive roadmap from preparation to submission and beyond.</p>
