Take the fear out of doing taxes by providing a how-to lens on doing a basic tax return. It is a perfect time to make a lens because you have to file your return anyway so it will all be fresh in your mind.

Modules to include:

  • A text box with big image for each major section of the tax form.
  • A black box module with a link to download tax papers from government website (and a hint to print out more than one copy).
  • Poll: What is the most you have paid for someone else to do your taxes.
  • Text list module of tips or the top ten reasons why we should all do our own tax returns.
  • Guestbook to ask people if they are going to do it themselves this year.
