Today, let’s talk about commonly forgotten tax return deductions:
Just a little less than two weeks and then the year will be gone. If you’re looking for a quick fix to a tax problem, look to your business! Or, if you don’t yet have a business, it’s not too late to start your own home based business. Do you work for a company and often take work home, that counts too.
Regardless where you are in the process, take a few minutes to think about the information you’re going to need to give to your Accountant. These are just a few tax return deductions you might forget about, if you don’t take the time to review them now.
If you have a business, started a business, closed a business, did anything at all with your own business, there are some tax deduction expenses that frequently get missed. Typically these are the expenses at the very beginning of your business or the expenses that you incur when you pay with cash.
Did you purchase or donate any of the following to your new business?
Computer
Printer
Fax Machine
Office Furniture
Calculator
Cell Phone
File Cabinet
Artwork (in your home office)
iPod speakers
You get the drift – Make a list of things you purchased for your business or business startup. Also, take time to account for things or expenses you incurred for doing work from home for the company you work for. These expenses add up and can make a huge difference on your tax return!
