How do people get the most back?

Every year at the beginning of the year, I see commercials for people saying "We get you __% more back!". I know it is not anywhere near tax season yet but I seen one of these ads on an old blog post and it made me wonder about it.

Does anyone know how they do this?
 
I really couldn't tell you but I am wondering this myself. I am guessing it has to do with finding loopholes. You have to consider they know about a trick to getting more money for you, thus earning money themselves.

I am going to have to research it I guess. I thought I would ask on here in case anyone knew. I really can't figure it out but I guess loopholes would make sense.
 
The tax system has become so complex that it all depends on how comprehensive their software is. A person can't possibly know all the tax breaks, credits and deductions available, so they depend on their tax software.

What software do you think is the best in this case? I had no idea it was down to software! Oh how far we've come. lol
 
I read a book on this, it wasn't long.. I will have to find the title to give you.

Anyways, it said that there are always new ways to get more. It is kind of like hacking a video game. The government will fix the "holes" and people find ways around them to get more of their money back.
