🧩 What is Individual Tax Preparation?
What is it?
Individual tax preparation is the process of filing your yearly IRS Form 1040 (or other related forms) to report income, deductions, and credits. The goal? Pay the right amount of taxes – not a penny more.
At Chico Taxes, we break down the process so it’s:
- Clear: We explain everything in plain language.
- Efficient: We gather and organize your documents, so nothing is missed.
- Stress-Free: You’ll never feel lost in tax jargon.
Who needs it?
If you earned income in the U.S., chances are you need to file a tax return. This includes:
- Employees (W-2s)
- Self-employed business owners
- Investors with dividends or capital gains
- Rental property owners
- Freelancers or gig workers
There are exceptions, but filing ensures compliance and could even bring you a refund.
