If you were to ask my children how many seasons there are their answer would come with no hesitation, FIVE – spring, summer, fall, winter, and tax. They know the drill – long hours and full concentration on reducing our client’s tax burden.
Should the Tax Season Be About Rush, Rush, Rush?
The IRS thrives on trader tax complexity and as a trader; your largest expense is your tax bill. As my children even say, haste makes waste. So why risk thousands of dollars rushing through such complexities? Here are some useful tax tips you should know as the deadline approaches rapidly.
Extension of Time to File Your Tax Return
Is it an IRS "red flag" to file an extension? One fact you must remember when filing an extension is that the request is an extension to file your taxes, not to pay your taxes. The IRS is very generous when it comes to giving you extra time to file your return. In fact, with an extension, you can wait until October 15th to file a personal tax return. HOWEVER, if you have not paid your taxes by April 15th (regardless of an extension), you will be charged interest AND penalties. Yes, you heard right. PENALTIES. The failure to pay penalty (different from the estimated tax penalty) is .05% of the tax not paid, for each month (or part of a month) it remains unpaid, up to a maximum of 25%.
These penalties are like bad investments, taking time to stop and think will help you avoid them. If an extension is necessary and you are concerned about owing tax, prepare an estimate of what you think you owe. If you are still unsure, take the time to have our professionals estimate the amount you owe. Also, remember that making an overpayment could be a great investment. After all, it carries a guaranteed 4% return!
Stimulus! Stimulus! Stimulus! What Do These Government Tax Credits Mean to You?
The year 2009 was a whirlwind. The government, in an effort to help the economy, has created, modified, and extended several credits and deductions which could possibly mean thousands of dollars for taxpayers. Why leave money on the table? These credits and deductions could range from home ownership, education, energy, to dependents. Take the extra time to learn from our professionals about what credits and deductions are available to you. Don’t miss out because you were rushed to file your tax return.
