Watch out for the growing reach of the 3.8% net investment income tax (NIIT). The income thresholds haven’t changed since the tax took effect in 2013, so it’s hitting more taxpayers. If you have net investment income (NII) and your 2026 modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) exceeds $200,000 ($250,000 if you’re married and file jointly, half that if you file separately), you’ll be subject to the NIIT on the lesser of your NII or the amount by which your MAGI exceeds the applicable threshold. Some NII examples are taxable interest, dividends, and gains from stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Year-end planning may help reduce your MAGI or NII — and the NIIT’s impact. Contact us to learn more.

The IRS recently announced special per diem travel rates that are effective from Oct. 1, 2026, through Sept. 30, 2027. Under the simplified high-low method, employers can use two per diem rates to reimburse employees for lodging, meals and incidental expenses for business travel within the continental U.S. The new rate is $329 for high-cost localities and $230 for all other areas. In some locations, the high-cost rate applies only for certain periods of the year. The high-low method can simplify expense reimbursements and reduce paperwork, but you must follow specific IRS rules and restrictions. Contact us to help determine whether this method is right for your business.

As the year draws to a close, your employer’s 401(k) plan may offer an opportunity to reduce your 2026 income taxes. If you haven’t been contributing, it may not be too late to start. And if you’re already contributing, increasing the amount you contribute from each paycheck before year end could boost your 2026 tax savings. If your employer matches contributions, try to contribute at least enough to receive the maximum match. Otherwise, you’ll lose out on free money! Check with your employer about deadlines and available options. We can help you evaluate the tax implications and determine whether increasing your contributions makes sense for your situation.

Does your business accept, spend or invest in cryptocurrency? The IRS scrutinizes digital-asset transactions. Business tax returns include a question about digital assets, and brokers must report certain transactions on Form 1099-DA.

Digital assets are treated as property for federal tax purposes. Cryptocurrency accepted for goods or services is taxable income based on its fair market value when received. Selling, exchanging or spending it may create a separate gain or loss. Crypto payments to employees and contractors are subject to the usual tax-reporting rules and can produce a business gain or loss. Contact us to review your 2026 digital-asset activity and reporting obligations.

It’s time to address year-end tax planning, especially if your business is booming. Start by projecting your 2026 tax obligation and assessing whether estimated payments made throughout the year are sufficient. You may need to adjust your fourth payment to potentially avoid (or minimize) underpayment penalties.

Also consider tax-reduction strategies, such as timing revenue and expenses, taking advantage of the qualified business income deduction, contributing to a retirement plan and leveraging first-year depreciation write-offs for eligible asset purchases.

These moves require careful coordination, so contact us to explore your options. We can help develop a plan tailored to your situation.
