🏠 Attention Arkansas Homeowners: Are you claiming your full 2026 benefits?

While most of us are staring down the April 15 tax deadline, there are two major legislative shifts happening right here in the Ozarks that you shouldn't miss. At Harris CPAs, we focus on building financial frameworks, not just filling out forms.

Here is the "Local Update" on what’s changing for your property:

✅ 1. The $600 Homestead Property Tax Credit
The Arkansas General Assembly officially increased the Homestead Credit from $500 to $600 for 2026 tax bills.

The Action: If this is your primary residence, make sure you are registered with the county assessor before October 15 to secure that extra $100 in relief.

✅ 2. Act 427: "Strengthen Arkansas Homes" Program
As of January 1, 2026, new state-funded grants are available to help homeowners wind-proof and hail-proof their homes to "FORTIFIED" standards.

The Strategy: These structural upgrades don't just protect your home—they are designed to lower your insurance premiums and boost your property’s resale value.

Don’t just react to tax season—build a roadmap. We help our neighbors in Springdale and across the Ozarks minimize financial loss and maximize state incentives.

If you have questions about these updates or your 2026 tax strategy, let’s talk.

Recent legislative shifts have created two high-impact opportunities for residents in the Ozarks. At Harris CPAs, we prioritize strategic frameworks over simple compliance. Here is what you need to know:

The $600 Homestead Credit: The Arkansas General Assembly has officially increased the property tax credit from $500 to $600. Ensure your primary residence is registered with the county assessor to capture this $100 gain.

Act 427 (Strengthen Arkansas Homes): This program provides grants to wind-proof and hail-proof homes to "FORTIFIED" standards. Beyond the immediate grant, these upgrades are designed to lower insurance premiums and protect property value.

The Strategy: Don't just react to tax season—build a framework that minimizes permanent loss and maximizes state-level incentives.

The IRS has launched a new “Report Fraud” webpage to simplify confidential reporting of suspected tax fraud or scams. It consolidates multiple IRS fraud-reporting options into a single location, allowing taxpayers to report suspected scams, tax evasion or other tax-related misconduct in one place. This is the initial phase; the IRS plans to further streamline fraud reporting by reducing the number of forms, automating processes and adopting modern case‑management tools. We’re here if you have questions. Call us at (479) 361-2201.

Can business debt become personal? In some cases, yes. If you’re a sole proprietor or a general partner in a partnership, you’re personally liable for business debts. Owners of corporations and limited liability companies are generally protected from personal liability, unless they personally guarantee a loan, commit fraud or fail to keep business and personal finances separate. Payroll taxes are different. The IRS can assess the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty to hold owners, officers or other responsible individuals personally liable for unpaid withheld payroll taxes, regardless of the business structure. This applies even if the business declares bankruptcy. Call us at (479) 361-2201 with questions.
