Benjamin Franklin once said that, “in life, only two things are certain: death and taxes”. He wasn't exaggerating about the latter. And because you must deal with taxes for as long as you live and earn money, you must get it right every time. Unlike any other infractions or violations, tax-related offenses have major repercussions. At a minimum, you will pay fines and expenses.
