Readers will find everything they need to prepare for the 2012 filing season, using the 28^th edition of the The Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2013 that is filled with tax tips and information on tax law changes in a straightforward and accessible style. And since The Guide is now available electronically, it’s even easier to search for advice on your individual tax situation.

Now available in hard copy, eMOBI, ePUB and ePDF, The Guide offers taxpayers and preparers convenient, on-the-go access to expiring tax provisions and other important 2012 tax changes. Readers can now search effortlessly for specific tax deductions and rules or browse through the helpful content. Taxpayers and preparers can also sign up to receive tax alert emails with up-to-date information about tax law changes through the companion website – ey.com/EYTaxGuide.

Included are two books in one – Publication 17 – Your Federal Income Tax, the official Internal Revenue Service tax guide, and the Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2013 – to provide well-rounded tax information. This combination offers the IRS’ position on many of the questions taxpayers face, as well as Ernst & Young’s comments, explanations, and tax-saving tips.

“It’s more important than ever to plan for several possible scenarios in this changing tax environment,” said Greg Rosica, an Ernst & Young LLP Tax Partner and contributing author to the Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2013.  “Many taxpayers are confused about how potential tax changes will affect their personal situations. The Ernst & Young Tax Guide is an excellent reference tool taxpayers can use to help them plan accordingly.”
