LLC and LLP owners: Can you deduct your business losses this year? The answer may depend on whether your activity is considered passive according to the IRS’s passive activity loss rules.

Under these rules, you generally can use passive losses only to offset income from other passive activities. If you meet certain “material participation” criteria, however, you may be able to offset LLC or LLP losses against nonpassive income, such as wages, interest, dividends and capital gains — but the rules can be complex, especially for limited partners.

Contact us for guidance on tracking your participation hours, applying the material participation test and maximizing business loss deductions.

How you capitalize your C corporation isn’t just an accounting matter — it’s a tax-saving opportunity. You can set up funds supplied by shareholders as either capital contributions (equity) or loans (debt).

Future withdrawals by equity investors may result in double taxation. Conversely, repayments of shareholder loans are generally tax-free, while interest payments are taxable to the shareholder and deductible by the corporation. This setup provides a more tax-efficient way to get money out of your company. However, the IRS may reclassify shareholder loans as equity if not properly structured and documented. Contact us to evaluate your options and determine what’s right for your situation.

Growing small businesses may trigger the ACA’s play-or-pay provisions. These rules apply to applicable large employers (ALEs), which are those with 50 or more full-time employees, including full-time equivalents (FTEs).

ALEs must offer full-time employees and their dependents minimum essential coverage that’s affordable and provides certain minimum value. For 2026, the penalties for noncompliance generally are 1) $3,340 per full-time employee, excluding the first 30, for not offering coverage, and 2) $5,010 per full-time employee who receives a premium tax credit, for offering coverage that doesn’t meet the affordability and minimum value requirements.

Contact us to discuss your obligations.

Are you eligible for mileage deductions? Whether you’re filing your 2025 individual income tax return or planning for 2026, it’s important to know. Employees can’t deduct business mileage, but the self-employed can. And vehicle expense deductions may also be available to individuals who drive for medical, moving or charitable purposes. But many rules and limits apply. The standard business mileage rate is 70 cents for 2025 and 72.5 cents for 2026. The rate for medical or moving mileage is 21 cents for 2025 and 20.5 cents for 2026. The charitable mileage rate is 14 cents for both 2025 and 2026. Or you can claim certain actual expenses. If you’re not sure whether you’re eligible, contact us.

Should your nonprofit adopt (or revise) term limits for board members? While not required, they can enhance governance by allowing for fresh perspectives, more collaborative decision-making and broader community engagement. But they also risk losing institutional knowledge and require ongoing recruitment. The best approach depends on your organization’s size, structure and strategic goals. If your organization is evaluating board term limits or considering other governance changes, we can help you assess the implications, identify potential risks and design policies that align with best practices. Contact us to get started.
