• Getting ready to file your income tax returns for the year?

• Do you owe a large amount of income taxes and are wondering why it’s so high?

• There are many possibilities as to why you owe a significant amount to IRS.

2) With all of this information you’re furnishing to the IRS, missing a few items won’t hurt, right?

• It is "wrong" to assume that missing some information won't hurt.

• The IRS views withheld information very seriously.

• It is not wise to withhold information or provide incorrect information

• The information you furnish to the IRS isn’t their only way to verify information about you.

• DIF is a computerized system that analyzes each tax return on the basis of several factors.

• The higher the score, the more accurate the return is thought to be.

• Tax returns with low scores are flagged red.
