In light of the recent tax reforms, this webinar explores some of the major changes for 2020 and some different strategies for managing through them!
Generally, there are two strategies to choose from in any given tax year. You either want to minimize the income you report to the government in order to reduce your tax bill. Or in certain circumstances, you will want to accelerate income into a year – especially if it is a low-income year and you anticipate higher tax rates in the future. For most of us, we want to minimize our tax bill and most of the techniques we will discuss today center around that.
However, some years you may want to accelerate income – and there are numerous techniques for that. But definitely talk to your CPA and financial advisor before you start buying or selling. Or talk to us. Pushing income from year to year can get tricky and it helps to have expert guidance.
Given all that, let's talk about some ideas for minimizing your tax bill. Of course, we cannot say with any certainty which one of these ideas will work for you. It all depends on variables that are unique to you and your family. But these next suggestions are good places to start in managing this year's tax bill.
