"It's almost March," I said to myself the other day. "Where are all of the 'Top Tax Tips' articles and blog posts? We should be drowning in them by now."

Then I opened my inbox. As if on queue, there they were -- four separate advice columns for weary taxpayers and preparers everywhere.

• 7 tips for filing your 2011 taxes, from Kiplinger's Kevin McCormally
• 10 tips for filing your 2011 tax return, from the AICPA
• Ten steps to a better tax season, from Ira Rosenbloom and CPA Trendlines (for all of you CPAs out there)
• And my personal favorite: 10 tips to follow before you do your taxes, from NBCLatino (featuring advice from MACPA Board Member Marianela del Pino-Rivera)

Take a close look, CPAS. Did they miss anything?

On second thought, get some rest. You'll need it -- April 17 will be here before you know it.
