The IRS has published new FAQs on Executive Order 14247, which calls for eliminating paper checks to and from the IRS. This change is to reduce fraud, enhance security, lower costs and speed up processing. The IRS is encouraging taxpayers to provide banking information on their 2025 tax returns so it can issue refunds via direct deposit. For taxpayers without a bank account, options such as prepaid debit cards, digital wallets or limited exceptions to the “no paper checks” rule are available. If you owe tax, electronic payment methods are preferred, but the IRS will continue to accept mailed paper checks and money orders for now. Contact us at (800) 839-5767 if you have any questions or concerns.

The decision to itemize deductions or claim the standard deduction can have a big impact on your tax bill. With a higher standard deduction and itemized deductions more limited, many taxpayers who once benefited from itemizing have been better off taking the standard deduction. But the recent quadrupling of the deduction limit for state and local taxes could make itemizing worthwhile again for some. Not sure which is better for you? We can help. Call us at (800) 839-5767.

Your marital status affects many federal tax filing variables, including your standard deduction, credit eligibility and tax owed. If you’re currently “informally” separated from your spouse but still legally married, the IRS generally considers you married for the entire year (even if you’ve lived apart for many months). Unless you divorced or legally separated by Dec. 31, 2025, you must file as married filing jointly or married filing separately for the 2025 tax year. If, on the other hand, you finalized a divorce or legal separation in 2025, you should file as single or, if eligible, head of household. Call us at (800) 839-5767 if you have questions about filing your tax return.

Drip, drip, drip. That may be the sound of your business’s retirement savings plan “leakage.” Leakage refers to pre-retirement withdrawals made by plan participants (your employees). When a plan’s total assets and individual account sizes shrink, it tends to hurt administrative efficiency and raise costs. It could also indicate that your workers are experiencing financial difficulties, which can reduce productivity. Contact us at (800) 839-5767 to discuss possible solutions.

Writing a comprehensive business plan is an absolute imperative when launching a business. But it’s also important for running one. Why? Because your business plan can help you see into the future. As long as it’s properly structured, adheres to sound strategies and contains accurate data, a business plan should spell out in black and white what your company will accomplish and how it will get there. Contact us at (800) 839-5767 for help determining whether your business plan is still the crystal ball it needs to be.

The IRS considers a paper return that’s due April 15 to be timely filed if it’s postmarked by midnight. Sounds straightforward, but let’s say you mail your return with a payment on April 15, and the envelope gets lost. You don’t figure this out and refile until a couple of months later. Despite your efforts to timely file and pay, you can still be hit with both failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties. One way to minimize this risk is to use certified or registered mail or an IRS-approved private delivery service. A better way is to work with a tax professional who’ll e-file your return and help ensure you claim every break you’re entitled to while staying compliant with tax law. Contact us at (800) 839-5767 to start your 2025 return.

The IRS and the Security Summit are warning taxpayers that during tax filing season identity thieves are poised to scam people into sharing personal information to file false tax returns and steal refunds. Specific threats include phishing emails and smishing texts, where the thief impersonates a legitimate organization in the tax community, such as the IRS, a state agency or a tax software company, to try to convince the target to provide personal information, click on harmful links or send money. Having an Identity Protection (IP) PIN can protect taxpayers from tax-related identity theft. Anyone with an SSN or an ITIN can get an IP PIN. For more information, contact us at (800) 839-5767.

For small business owners, investing in new equipment, expanding facilities or launching a new product can be a big decision. With limited funds, it’s essential to pinpoint the opportunities that deliver the most value. Financial models like accounting payback, net present value and internal rate of return offer a disciplined, data-driven approach to evaluating your options. We can help you apply these models to make confident, informed capital-budgeting decisions that fuel long-term success. Call us at (800) 839-5767 to get started.

Income investments can play a key role in a diversified portfolio, so it’s important to be aware of their tax treatment. Qualified dividends are taxed at favorable long-term capital gains tax rates. But interest income is generally taxed at ordinary income rates, which can be as high as 37%. So stocks that pay qualified dividends may be more attractive tax-wise than other income investments, such as CDs and taxable bonds. We can help assess the tax consequences of your investment strategy. Call us at (800) 839-5767.

Grantor-retained annuity trusts (GRATs) and grantor-retained unitrusts (GRUTs) allow you to give assets to your children today while you receive payments back from the trust for a specified term. And, provided you survive the trust’s term, you’ll remove the assets from your taxable estate at a reduced value for gift tax purposes. At the end of the term, the principal may pass to the beneficiaries or remain in the trust. Contact us at (800) 839-5767 for additional details.
