News Release: New Books from Evelyn Jacks Help Online Filers and “Take-Charge” People

Jacks to launch her 49th and 50th books, Jacks on Tax, Your Do‐It‐Yourself Guide to Filing Taxes Online and Essential Tax Facts: Secrets and Strategies for Take‐Charge People on Jan. 15 at 7:45 AM at the Albany Club in Toronto.

Winnipeg, Canada.  Online tax filers could be leaving lots on money on the table in missed tax savings and potential audit problems, says Evelyn Jacks, who has become one of Canada’s most prolific financial authors with the release of her 49^th and 50^th books, Jacks on Tax, Your Do-It-Yourself Guide to Filing Taxes Online and Essential Tax Facts: Secrets and Strategies for Take-Charge People.

Mrs. Jacks, who will be at the Albany Club in Toronto January 15 for a launch of both books, fears that in difficult times, indebted Canadians might be overpaying their taxes, too. “Today, it’s more important than ever for Canadians to take charge of every dollar with tax efficiency,” says Jacks. “These books will help.”

Jacks’ commitment to helping Canadians understand their taxes in a fast-paced, electronic world motivated her to pen not only one, but two books in the past year — the return of Jacks on Tax will help the over 5 Million Canadians now Netfiling their tax returns, while the 6^th edition of Essential Tax Facts is the companion planning guide that will explain principles and processes Canadians can use to build inter-generational wealth.

With the average tax refund now at a record-breaking $1666, Canadians are giving up too much too soon to the taxman, according to Jacks. “What counts is what you keep,” says Jacks, “With every pay period throughout the year and especially at tax filing time. These books will help you think about the time value of your money: the more you manage to keep today, the more it will be worth in the future. You will see it’s possible to take more control, sooner.”

“It’s amazing that Evelyn has completed her 49^th and 50^th books this year,” says author of Retirement’s Harsh New Realities, Gordon Pape. “She is Canada’s most trusted tax advisor, and her books have helped thousands of Canadians to learn how to save money for their families.”

There are many ways to do a correct tax return, but Jacks shows what you need to know in order to file for the biggest possible refund, and the most in refundable tax credits, despite the mesmerizing ease of tax software and electronic filing methods. Even if you don’t do your own taxes, these books are valuable: they will help you ask better questions of professional tax and financial advisors, too.
