FindLaw announces the launch of its new Special Edition 2009 Tax Center, providing you with up-to-date information and resources for filing your 2009 income tax return with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and with your state tax agency.

Every new year brings new tips for getting your tax returns together in time for the April 15 deadline, and new changes to the hundreds of pages of the Internal Revenue Code -- the law that spells out what you can and cannot do in filing your federal income tax return. Filing tips, practical information, and hints on tax law changes are important for all taxpayers to keep in mind, but can especially come in handy for parents, homeowners, businesses, students, and others looking to save money -- by taking advantage of new and updated tax deductions and tax credits.

So, what do you need to know for 2009? Check out FindLaw?s Special Edition 2009 Tax Center for a step-by-step guide to preparing and filing your return; tips on avoiding audits and penalties; informative videos and podcasts; links to tax forms, tax laws, and helpful resources from the IRS and your state tax agency; and much more.
