SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Taxpayers routinely overpay because they miss deductions like QBI, self-employed health insurance, or HSA contributions, and spotting these gaps requires deep knowledge of annually changing IRS limits. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Return Review Checklist: Systematically checks filing status, standard vs. itemized deductions, Form 8995 (QBI), Schedule 1 adjustments, and carryforwards. - Missed Deduction Detection: Covers W-2 employees, self-employed filers, investors, and homeowners with current-year contribution limits and phase-outs. - Quantified Savings Estimates: Translates each finding into dollar amounts based on the filer's tax bracket. - Use Case: A freelancer shares last year's Schedule C; the review flags a missing Form 8995, estimating a $4,200 deduction worth roughly $925 in refund, amendable up to three years back. ## Quick Start Review my attached tax return and list any missed deductions with estimated savings for each finding.

Frequently Asked Questions about tax-reviewer

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find missed deductions on my tax return?▼

Check for Form 8995 (QBI deduction) if you have Schedule C, E, or K-1 income, verify Schedule 1 adjustments like half of self-employment tax and HSA contributions, and confirm whether itemizing beats the standard deduction. These are the most commonly missed items.

What deductions do self-employed filers commonly miss?▼

The QBI deduction (20% of qualified business income) is the most missed, followed by self-employed health insurance premiums, half of self-employment tax, home office expenses, and Solo 401(k) or SEP-IRA contributions. Each missed dollar costs roughly 30-40 cents in combined taxes.

Can this skill file or amend my tax return?▼

No, it only reviews returns and identifies potential savings as general educational information. Filing or amending requires actual tax software or a qualified CPA, especially for self-employment, rentals, K-1s, or state-specific issues.

Are the tax limits and contribution numbers always accurate?▼

The listed figures are Tax Year 2026 values, but the IRS adjusts limits annually. The skill instructs verification of current-year numbers via web search before relying on any threshold, phase-out, or contribution limit.

When should I not use automated tax review?▼

Avoid it for state-specific tax law questions, international tax situations, business entity structuring, and actual filing. These scenarios require a local CPA or enrolled agent because state conformity to federal law varies widely.
