Being prepared and filing early allows you to get your money earlier, says David Prokupeck, President and CEO of Jackson Hewitt. Getting all of your documents together, including income statements and expenses, is the best way to do this.

Prokupeck says one of the biggest missed are single moms not filing as head of household.
