From what I have read on the forum, I'm supposed to add chemicals near the return jets. Do I need to add it around EACH return jet or can I just add the chemicals to ONE return jet near the deep end of the pool. I hate to waste my time and go around each return jet if I do not have to.

Adding it in front of one return jet is fine - that's what I've done since converting to the TFP method nearly 4 years ago with great results.
Here is a handy Pool School article that discusses pool chemicals and how to add them. Pool School - Recommended Pool Chemicals

I know I read that entire page but missed the line about pouring it in front of a jet. The 2 months I been doing the TFPC Method I just throw it into the middle of the pool. Would someone care to explain why its suggested to pour it slowly in front of a jet?

To keep it from settling on the bottom of your pool. You want to mix it as quickly and evenly as possible.

Keep in mind that is a general rule for ALL chemistry additions, but, yes, uncirculated bleach will tend to collect at the bottom of your pool.
Not really. Just apply them so the return jet distributes them into the pool and there is no need. If you see granules on your pool floor, by all means brush them around until they are gone.
