February is mailbox-watch month. W-2s, 1098s, 1095s — they’re all arriving right now.
|
|
The most common tax mistake isn’t math. It’s impatience. Filing the second your W-2 arrives feels productive, but if a corrected 1099 shows up next week, you’re looking at an amended return. That’s not a minor inconvenience — it can delay your refund by months.
|
|
The move right now isn’t to file. It’s to gather.
|
-
Verify your W-2 matches your final December pay stub.
-
Look for Form 1098 if you paid mortgage interest or student loans.
-
Grab the 1099-INT from your bank — yes, even for that $11.42.
-
Don’t toss “informational” letters from the IRS. They’re not junk mail.
