Mandate #3141-2-1-2: Unofficial Guide to Properly Filing Your Tax Returns in 5 Easy Steps

By law, you're required to file your taxes, but who wants to do that? Not me, that's who. Luckily, we've got you covered with this easy 5-step guide to making tax filing a breeze.

Step 1: Gather Your Stuff

Get all the forms, documents, and receipts. Don't bother me with the details, I'll just assume you have everything you need. If not, here's where to get it.

Step 2: Fill Out the Forms

Don't worry if your math skills are, well, not exactly 'tax-ative.' Just Google 'tax calculator' and you'll be golden. If you're not, hire a pro.

Step 3: Submit Your Forms (and Pray)

Attach a check for the correct amount (hint: don't underpay, or you'll get audited). If you're not sure how much, ask your accountant.

Step 4: Get Your Refund (or Not)

If you're one of the chosen few, you'll get a refund! Spend it on something fun.

Step 5: Repeat (or Pretend to)

Every year, do it all again. Or, just pretend to. Who needs actual tax compliance, anyway? Join the revolution.
