The Tax Problem Story - The Causes of Tax Problems

Although the causes of tax problems vary widely, they all have one thing in common: they are preventable. No matter the situation or whether the cause of the tax problem rests with an individual or business, taxes done properly will prevent future tax problems. The IRS states that most errors that cause tax problems are mistakes, such as misspellings, mathematical errors or the entering incorrect information.
