i haven't had to do much for taxes for a long time (if you don't earn taxable income you don't have to file if nobody is withholding taxes) but this year i do have to file even if i do not owe any taxes again. just because i withdrew some money from my Health Savings Account.
there's a lot of added things but most of them i can skip over easily so it is just a matter of making sure i don't miss anything else.
it can be intimidating trying to do your own taxes but i've done them myself all my life, except for these past years... i just go down the forms and read the instructions and take care of one issue at a time.
today i made it to the end of the form and will fill everything out in ink on fresh copies and get it mailed tomorrow. at least that is the current plan.

haha, so much for plans... we didn't have any envelopes and on top of that the state recommends that even if you don't owe any thing that if you do file a federal return you should also file a state return to "eliminate unnecessary correspondence from Treasury".
