Deductions and credits to maximize your tax savings and extensions, amended returns and estimated taxes. So we'll go through, click on continue and we're on income, ok. You can go through specific topics or guide me. Of course, let?s go through guide me, ok. They can give you instant to all questions on every turbo tax screen. I am going to put no thanks and go through W-2 income. This is the most important part of the process is how much you made 2007. That's what the government wants to know. So we go through, I have a corrected W-2 or should have received a W-2 but didn't. If you did not then click there. Most of us of course, when we do are taxes we will have our W-2's so we will click, I have a corrected W-2.
