Money and Taxes

Realizing that money often gauges the mood and health of a nation, the U.S. government provides a wide ranging scope of information on all things financially related. Many of these matters, especially when it comes to taxes, can be complicated to understand. But through the government’s free media—publications, brochures, and online content—you can find everything you need to know, regardless if you’re investing, buying or protecting.

For instance, if you’re a potential homebuyer you’ll find more than just mortgage advice. The government has step-by-step tips on the home buying process, ranging from selecting a real estate agent to getting a home inspection. Or if you’re a homeowner looking to renovate, there’s a deep pool of resources on home improvement, including energy saving tips and how to select contractor.

Depending on your situation there’s also personal financial advice on managing debt, filing for bankruptcy, consolidating loans, investing, teen spending, retirement plans and much more. And you can also protect yourself against fraud and deception by keeping abreast of the latest scam alerts.

And the government also answers questions about itself. Full, detailed sections on the current budget and how your tax dollars are spent are available in easy-to-read formats.
