TEACHERS: I’ve got a little tax lesson for YOU today! 📝

If you spent your own money on classroom supplies (again 😅), don’t forget to claim the educator expense deduction on your taxes!

For the 2025 tax year, you can deduct up to $300 (or $600 if you’re MFJ and both spouses are qualified educators) for qualified classroom expenses that your work doesn’t pay you back for.

💬 Show a little teacher appreciation and tag an educator in the comments who NEEDS to know about this!

👀 This is your sign (yes, even if YOU are the friend in question)…

If you know someone who still hasn’t filed their 2024 tax return, go ahead and hit that little paper airplane icon and send them this post. 💌

At Kern Tax Service, we help taxpayers get caught up on their taxes without the stress or shame (even if you’re a few years behind on filing).

Let’s break down some of the things you need to know if you’re working in a “traditionally tipped” position:

Qualified workers can:

→ Deduct up to $25,000 of their qualifying tips

→ Claim this deduction starting with qualified tips earned in 2025 through 2028

A few more things you need to know:

One, you’ll still pay Social Security + Medicare taxes on those tips even if you claim this deduction.

And two, this deduction phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $150,000 ($300,000 filing jointly).

If you earn tips, I highly recommend working with a qualified tax professional to ensure you understand how much you’re qualified to deduct!

Before you start spiraling when you get an IRS notice, know this:

Not every IRS letter is an audit notice! In fact, not every IRS letter is a bad thing. 💌

📬 Here’s what to do if one shows up in your mailbox:

→ Read it carefully as soon as you receive it.

→ Mark your calendar with the response deadline (if applicable). 📆

→ Gather any requested information and prepare an appropriate response.

📲 Not sure how to respond to your IRS letter? As your tax accountant, I can break it down and draft a response so you don’t have to keep stressing!

🎓 Here are FOUR ways to save on higher education expenses:

→ American Opportunity Tax Credit: A tax credit for qualifying higher education expenses for the first four years of higher education.

→ Lifetime Learning Credit: A tax credit for qualifying postsecondary education expenses with no limit on the number of years the credit is available.

→ Student Loan Interest Deduction: Depending on your income level, you may qualify to deduct up to $2,500 of student loan interest paid.
