1. It's easier than it used to be. Just tromp on down to the local
IRS orifice and ask for a summary of reported income. Bring
identification. You can also request this via certified mail (you
may have to notarize it), but that's slower. Keep in mind that they
can be as much as 3 months behind, so if the summary doesn't include
something that happened at the end of last year, that's probably
why; just include it in your filing.

2. It's not a bad idea to attach a summary of all your 1099's and W-
2G's to your return.

3. Casinos don't report cashback unless you exceed the $1200
threshold for any one redemption, and if you play that heavily, the
IRS already has an entire local office named after you anyway.
