I usually ignore it until around mid-March, when I dig out my file full of receipts and spread them all over the kitchen table where they make my life miserable for several consecutive evenings.

If you're starting to feel that creeping tax return dread, you might want to check out these tips we posted last year from The Born Freelancer: The Born Freelancer on taxing matters and More tax tips from the Born Freelancer.

At the very least, they'll provide you with a few minutes of relief from sorting through piles of receipts. Don't worry, April 30th is still a good six weeks away.
