Answers all your tax questions

This book is definitely a handy reference. It will answer all your tax questions in easy to understand wording. Definitely easier to read and understand than the tax laws as written by the Federal Gov't.

Favorite tax book each year!

I have a tough time understanding tax rules with the normal tax instructions from IRS, so I have tried both JK Lasser's and the Ernst & Young tax books over the years. The JK Lasser tax book is by far the easiest tax book for me to understand. I'm just a normal citizen preparing my own taxes, including a small business and kids in school. With the JK Lasser tax book, I feel I'm getting every possible advantage. I like the notes in the sidelines, and find my info easily in their extensive and well-done table of contents. It also has 2 copies of every form in the back of the book, so I don't have to send for or go out looking for hard to find forms (which are now also available on-line from the IRS website).

J.K. Lasser's Your Income Tax

I work for the IRS answering questions. I personally ordered this book each year because it is more easily organized and explains tax law in simple terms for the taxpayer. Often times if I have trouble explaining tax law in the terms that a taxpayer can understand, I refer to this book. One year I bought both the Ernest & Young and Lasser's Tax Guides. The information is the same in both. I picked up the Lasser Guide more often.
