Prysm Note for tax season
Nobody enjoys tax season, and the work is mostly retrieval. A folder per year, a running list of deductible costs and a dated task for each deadline removes the week of panic in January.
What matters here
- One note or list per tax year
- Receipts recorded as they happen
- Deadlines as recurring tasks
- A list of questions for an accountant
- A checklist of documents to gather
Collecting through the year
Every deductible cost gets an entry when it is paid, with a note on what it was for. A shoebox of receipts is a week of work; a list is an hour of confirmation.
Deadlines
Registration, submission and payment often fall on different dates. Three separate recurring tasks, with reminders a fortnight before, are enough.
The accountant handover
A checklist of what they need, kept from last year, plus a note of anything unusual. The smoother the handover, the less billable time it takes.
