Taxpayers are still seeing a balance due in their IRS.gov online accounts that does not match their actual balance.

Payments are being recorded in the payment activity (a separate tab in your online account), but they apparently are not yet reflected in the balance due.

If you’re checking your balance due, click over to that payment tab, too. And be sure to double-check the amount.

Hopefully, the IRS will get this sorted before it sends send out more notices.

Some practical budgeting tips.

You want your house to be a blessing, not a burden.

This is why I ALWAYS recommend a 15-year mortgage and to NEVER spend more than 25% of your monthly take-home pay (after tax) on monthly mortgage payments.

If you’re curious about what the best mortgage is for you in the future, or how much home you can actually afford, go to the link in my bio and I'll send you the resources you need to make the decision with confidence.

The Corporate Transparency Act—or CTA—requires reporting companies to file reports with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).

The deadline to file your beneficial ownership information (BOI) report under the CTA depends on when the reporting company was formed.

-> The deadline for reporting companies formed before January 1, 2024, is January 1, 2025.
-> The deadline for reporting companies formed after January 1, 2024, is 90 days after formation.
-> The deadline for reporting companies formed on or after January 1, 2025, is 30 days after formation.

(If you live in an area affected by the hurricanes, as confirmed by FEMA, relief in the form of extensions may be available.)
