Publications Can Help With Paper, Online Filing

POSTED: 2:05 pm EDT March 17, 2009

There are a number of printed tax guides available to help you when it comes to filling out and filing your return, either electronically or on paper.

One of the best deals around is the IRS' own Publication 17, which is some 300 pages long. You can download it for free from the IRS Web site, or request a printed copy over the phone.

If you don't want to go to the trouble and expense of printing it all out, you can download the PDF file and keep it on your computer for use when needed.

If you don't mind spending money on a commercially prepared guide, one of the more popular versions is the J.K. Lasser guide, "Your Income Tax 2009."

Weighing in at more than 800 pages, the guide is user friendly, includes tax tables, a glossary as well as some basic tax forms.
