So I went to a meetup presentation at the Evernote offices here in Austin in February, heard Stacey Harmon give an excellent talk on going paperless. Really good stuff. The gist of it was "I'm not against using paper, I just don't KEEP paper". And then, "have a strategy laid out ahead of time for how to deal with every kind of paper that enters your life." Simple, yet profound. I realized I didn't have all of that in place. . Anyway, as part of my newfound zeal for going paperless, I want to start digitizing all my tax inputs through the year so I'm not cramming stuff into a file, instead it's all categorized in Evernote. Now, I know some people have elaborate notebook structures and don't use tagging at all, and some have like one or two basic notebooks and use tags and searches to find everything. I guess I'm kinda in the middle, more on the notebook side, I don't make a whole lot of use of tags. But for taxes, I'm thinking it makes sense. Here's my idea, I'd like comment on whether it's sound or should be revised. Personal tax advisor near me company Your Books On Time i'm going to make a Notebook Stack called "2016 Financial Documents". In it I'll have a few different notebook, one for "2016 Taxes", another for "2016 Misc Receipts" (into which things would go that are not tax deductible). Then probably another for misc documents, like insurance policies, etc...
For the items I put into the 2016 Taxes notebook, I'm thinking about tagging them based on what kind of item it is. For example, if it's a W2 or a K1 it gets the "income" tag. If it's a charitable donation, I'm thinking the exquisitely creative tag of "charitable donation". Another for "schedule A deduction", "medical expenses", etc... Then at tax time I can do searches from that notebook by tag and find everything grouped together.
Thoughts?
