Taxes

January and February are the most popular months to pay taxes. All the americans citizens and residents are doing their taxes now. There are two forms of paying taxes. One of them is paying taxes at the end the year and another is when you receive a salary by check. The taxes are using by the goverment to invest in education, in infrastructure, military, help care, etc. Taxes can be higher or lower depend of the amount of money that you earn. Also, to do the taxes you need an accountant. Personally, I prefer to pay taxes every time when I receive a check because at the end the year the goverment give me back some part of it. Of course it is never the same amount that you paid but it is something. So don't forget to do your taxes this year. Good luck.

Hi Evelyn,

I am not looking forward to having my taxes done. My situation is a little complicated because I was working abroad last year and so figuring taxes is a bit of a headache! In the February break I think I will go to my accountant and show him ll my paperwork. Unless of course, you want to do my taxes for me- only kidding!!
