IRS has posted on its website a list of tax tips for newlyweds and couples who expect to marry in the near future.

The tips include “important steps [couples] need to take to avoid stress at tax time,” IRS said.

The tips include the following:

• Report any name change to the Social Security Administration so that a name and Social Security number will match when a tax return is filed
• Notify IRS and the U.S. Postal Service if there is a new address
• Report any name and address change to employers to ensure receipt of Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, after the end of the year
• Use the IRS Withholding Calculator to determine the correct amount of withholding needed for a new filing status
• Select the correct tax forms
• And choose the best filing status.
