πŸ’‘ Monday Tax Tip

Not every business expense is automatically tax deductible.

To qualify as a deduction, an expense generally must be both ordinary and necessary for your business.

Common examples include:
βœ… Office supplies
βœ… Professional dues and subscriptions
βœ… Business insurance
βœ… Marketing and advertising
βœ… Business mileage

Just because something was purchased with a business credit card doesn't automatically make it deductible.

Good recordkeeping throughout the year can help maximize deductions and reduce headaches at tax time.

🧠 Monday Tax Trivia

TRUE or FALSE?

You can contribute to an IRA for 2026 all the way until December 31, 2026.

❌ FALSE!

Most taxpayers have until the tax filing deadline in April of the following year to make an IRA contribution that counts for the previous tax year.

That means you can often reduce your tax bill even after the year has ended.

Many taxpayers miss out on valuable deductions and retirement savings opportunities simply because they don't realize they still have time to contribute.

Wondering if an IRA contribution could help lower your taxes?

We're happy to help.

πŸ’‘ Friday Tax Tip

Summer Side Hustle? Don't Forget About Taxes.

Driving for rideshare companies, delivering food, selling items online, mowing lawns, pet sitting, tutoring, freelance work, and other side gigs can create taxable income, even if you don't receive a tax form.

Many taxpayers are surprised to learn they may owe taxes because nothing was withheld from those earnings throughout the year.

A few simple habits can help avoid surprises:

βœ… Track all income received
βœ… Save receipts for business-related expenses
βœ… Keep mileage records if you drive for work
βœ… Set aside a portion of earnings for taxes
βœ… Consider making estimated tax payments if income becomes significant

The sooner you start keeping records, the easier tax time becomes.

🧠 Monday Tax Trivia

TRUE OR FALSE?

Can the government take your tax refund to pay certain debts?

βœ… TRUE!

This is called a Refund Offset.

Before issuing your refund, the government may apply some or all of it toward:

β€’ Past due child support

β€’ State tax debt

β€’ Certain federal debts

β€’ Other qualifying government obligations

Many taxpayers are surprised when their expected refund is reduced or disappears because of an offset.

The good news is that tax problems are often easier to solve when addressed early.

Monday Tax Trivia β˜€οΈ

Did you know some summer day camp expenses may qualify for a tax credit?

If the camp allows parents to work or look for work, part of the cost could qualify under the Child and Dependent Care Credit rules.

One important detail:
βœ” Day camps may qualify
✘ Overnight camps generally do not

Many taxpayers miss credits like this every year.

πŸ’‘ Friday Tax Tip from LGA Tax Services

If you sold stocks, crypto, or other investments during 2025, do not wait until the last minute to gather your tax documents.

Many brokerage firms issue corrected 1099 forms in February or March. Filing too early can lead to amended returns, delays, or IRS notices.

Before filing, make sure you have:
βœ”οΈ All 1099-B forms
βœ”οΈ Dividend and interest statements
βœ”οΈ Crypto transaction summaries
βœ”οΈ Cost basis information

Our team at LGA Tax Services LLC helps clients properly report investments, reduce surprises, and avoid common filing mistakes.

πŸš— Monday Tax Trivia πŸš—

Did you know?

The IRS standard mileage rate for business driving in 2025 is 70 cents per mile.

That means qualified business driving may help reduce your taxable income when properly tracked and documented.

Examples of qualifying business mileage may include:
βœ” Client meetings
βœ” Trips to the bank or post office
βœ” Supply runs
βœ” Temporary work locations

One of the biggest mistakes business owners make is failing to track miles consistently throughout the year.

Quick Tip:
Keep a simple mileage log with:
β€’ Date
β€’ Destination
β€’ Business purpose
β€’ Miles driven
Small miles can lead to big tax savings.
