Taxman's advice Dont wait to file 98 returns
New York AP One way to buck the trend this tax season is to file your return early. The IRS expects about 36 million returns around the April 15 deadline, with roughly 70 percent of taxpayers due refunds. Tax pros urge early prep due to 1998 tax law revisions including Roth IRAs new education credits and capital gains rules. Early filing speeds refunds to about three weeks and helps avoid penalties for those who owe.
