Unless you’re a bookkeeper, that’s not your main business. Get out of the business of bookkeeping. Hire it out, and use that time to be more productive in your own line of work. Consult an accounting and tax professional. People have this perception that having an actual accounting and tax professional do your taxes costs tons of money but the reality is that the money invested in consulting a professional could bring great rewards. Tax and accounting professionals will provide you information on areas that you were close to qualifying for in terms of credits and deductions, or help you with a plan for the future in order to take advantage of exemptions and deductions.
