Message from Lynn: Dear Friends: As the April 15 tax-filing deadline looms many find themselves facing unnecessary stress about filing their 2005 tax returns. One article in this month's newsletter offers advice on how to get through the process and even start planning for the 2006 tax filing. A few tidbits offered in the article include how to get organized, comparing this year's filing with last year's, checking and rechecking your math, and trying e-filing. As you can tell we are addressing the upcoming tax-filing deadline in this edition of MoneyWise. There are many areas that need to be considered when preparing to file your 2005 taxes from tax-breaks when disaster strikes to taking full advantage of deductions. I hope you find this information helpful whether you are filing the papers yourself or having a qualified professional take care of it for you.	March, 2006 Issue archived past issues ... F R E E ...
