Because 2019 was the first tax year affected by the massive 2018 overhaul, many filers found themselves overwhelmed and stressed during this past tax season. If you'd rather the upcoming tax season go a lot smoother, it's important to prepare for it in advance. While you may not have taxes on the brain this early in the year, you should know that the deadline to submit your return to the IRS is Wednesday, April 15.
Keep in mind that the tax deadline doesn't always land precisely on April 15. If that date falls out on a weekend, or if it coincides with a holiday, it can be pushed back a day or two. But since there's no such conflict in 2020, the normal April 15 deadline will apply. With that said, here are a few things you can do now to make the process of filing your 2019 tax return a lot easier on yourself.
