The IRS has instituted some BIG PENALTIES for understatement of income. Make sure you have included every single item of income. If you do not receive a W-2 or 1099 for some of your income, that does not excuse you from reporting it. By signing your tax return, you are swearing under penalty of perjury that you are reporting ALL of your income.
