taxes are easy when you are young. form 1040EZ and your w2 and it takes about 5 minutes.
go to the post office and get the 1040EZ form and the booklet that goes with it. once you do it once and you will have it down.
when you start itemizing deductions, writing off student loan and mortgage interest, and trying to squeeze every drop of milk out of the government t*t...then it gets complicated.
