If you accidentally left out taxable cryptocurrency income, you may be able to correct it by filing an amended return.

The easiest way to start is by figuring out which transactions you missed and which tax years they affect.

However, if you knowingly left income off your return, the situation is more serious. The IRS has a Voluntary Disclosure Practice for cases involving intentional noncompliance.

Regardless of how the income was missed, here's where we'd start:
1. Gather your cryptocurrency transaction records from the years in question.
2. Identify what wasn't reported and calculate how much taxable income was left off each return.
3. Talk more specifically with a tax professional about the appropriate way to correct the issue before filing.

If you're unsure how to handle cryptocurrency income you left off a previous return, send us a message. We can take a look at your situation together.

If you forgot to report some cryptocurrency, start by figuring out which transactions were actually taxable and whether you owe additional taxes.

1. Moving crypto between wallets you own doesn't, by itself, create a taxable sale.
2. Selling cryptocurrency can create a taxable gain or loss.
3. Exchanging one cryptocurrency for another can also create a taxable gain or loss, even if you never received cash.

Once that's clear, you need to determine what's happening with your reporting.

That starts by comparing your exchange and wallet history transactions against your previously filed returns.

If you checked “no” on Form 1040 in a year when you sold or exchanged cryptocurrency when you should have checked "yes," an amended return needs to be filed.

What's scarier than Halloween? Finding out your business has been paying for subscriptions nobody uses…

Before October ends, pull up your last three months of bank statements and look for recurring charges. Check which services you're actually using and cancel the ones you no longer need to eliminate those extra charges!

Whether you record an expense when you pay the bill or when the work is completed depends on whether your business uses cash-basis or accrual accounting. And that timing can change how your financial reports look.

With 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗵-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, you record income when money comes in and expenses when money goes out.

With 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, you record expenses when they're incurred, even if you pay the bill at a different time.

For example, if you pay a contractor in advance for work they'll complete next year, that payment may appear differently in your books depending on which method you use.

When those costs are being recorded matters. Otherwise, you might have trouble figuring out why one month looks more expensive than another.

Most people sleep on this tax benefit, don’t be one of them.

If you're eligible for a Health Savings Account (HSA), you’ve got access to a triple tax advantage:
💸 Contributions go in pre-tax
📈 They grow tax-free
🏥 Withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified medical expenses

And here’s the kicker:
You can still make contributions up until Tax Day (usually April 15) for the previous tax year.

That’s extra savings waiting to happen, and Crystal Clear Tax can help you get it right.
