In the days when it seems like people are being split so easily by their differences (and a lot by outside forces), it's helpful to remember that we have more commonalities than we think. As we reach to understand our similarities, may those join us together in difficult times.

Before I talk about preparing for your tax appointment, let's first make sure you've got an appointment scheduled. Haven't had a chance yet? You'll want to jump on that ASAP - our calendar is nearly full!

Now, for those with an appointment coming up, there are a few things you can do to make things go quickly and smoothly including:

- Identify what paperwork you'll need to bring to your appointment
- Gather all the appropriate documents and either submit them electronically (24 hours in advance) or print them out and bring them with you.
- Review last year's documents to be sure you're not missing anything

Doing these few things in advance will ensure a timely and efficient filing appointment.

Rather than asking "Is this expense deductible?" (the answer to which is often NO), start asking "How can I turn this expense into a deduction?"

Uncovering hidden deductions isn't about spending money on things to get a tax break. There's not a lot of money to be had there. What it really looks like is examining where you're already spending money and then turning it into something that works for you.

Are your money and time spent regularly on something outside the scope of your business that could actually be turned into a legitimate business venture? It might be time to consider turning that "play" into a lucrative work endeavor that not only brings in a profit but also means tax breaks for you.

We'd be glad to look things over for you and give you insight on where to begin.
