Football season is about to kick off. If you’ll be betting on college and NFL games this year, it’s time to brush up on the tax rules associated with gambling. Federal tax law requires taxpayers to report winnings on their tax returns, even if they don’t receive a Form W-2G for gambling winnings. Also a major gambling rule change went into effect this year: Gamblers can deduct from their winnings only 90% of their losses for a tax year. This means some gamblers could owe tax even if they break even or incur a net loss. And losses generally are deductible only if you itemize deductions. If you’re unsure of the tax rules regarding gambling, please contact us or visit: https://bit.ly/4zQQ2pS

Roth IRA and Roth 401(k) accounts help you save for retirement with after-tax dollars. Both accounts grow tax-free, and distributions are also tax-free if you meet certain conditions. However, higher earners may be ineligible to contribute to a Roth IRA. Income limits don’t apply to Roth 401(k)s, which also allow higher annual contributions. If you’re unsure where to put your retirement savings, contact us at 708-864-4071 for more information on the tax considerations.

Does your business provide vehicles for employees to use? Business use of an employer-provided vehicle is generally excluded from an employee’s income, but personal use, such as commuting or running personal errands, is generally taxable. Employers must determine the value of personal use using an appropriate valuation method (such as cents-per-mile, commuting valuation or automobile lease valuation), include the taxable amount in employees’ wages and meet applicable withholding and reporting requirements. Keep accurate mileage records to support proper tax treatment. The details can be complex, especially if vehicles are shared by multiple employees. We’re here if you need guidance.

📣 WE’RE HIRING!

Abendroth Accounting & Tax Services, Inc. is looking for a full-time Administrative & Client Services Coordinator to join our team in Tinley Park!

We’re looking for the right person first — someone who is dependable, organized, detail-oriented, great with people, comfortable taking ownership, and eager to learn.

Accounting or tax experience is NOT required. We are willing to train the right person.

The position will initially focus on:
• Client service and communication
• Scheduling and office coordination
• Administrative support
• Document and workflow management
• Day-to-day firm operations
• Occasional offsite client work and community events

And for someone who wants to grow? There’s room for that, too.

Over time, the position may expand into bookkeeping, payroll, tax support, firm operations, and other responsibilities based on demonstrated ability, interest, and the needs of the firm.

This is a full-time, primarily in-office position in Tinley Park. Because we’re a small firm, we’re looking for someone who wants to be an important part of the team—not just fill a seat.

If you’re organized, accurate, friendly, resourceful, and the kind of person who takes pride in following something all the way through, we’d love to hear from you.

📩 Interested candidates should send a resume and brief introduction to [email protected] with Administrative & Client Services Coordinator in the subject line.

Please feel free to share this post with someone who might be a great fit!

Many tax law changes went into effect this year. So it’s important to evaluate where your business stands — and where it’s headed — before year end. Tax planning opportunities may still be available, but they’ll become more limited as the calendar winds down. Whether you’re considering equipment purchases, compensation strategies, retirement plan contributions or other tax-saving moves, now is the time to look ahead and review your options. Call us at 708-864-4071 to bring your 2026 tax strategy into focus.

📣 Office Update for This Afternoon

As many of you know, we're navigating a few staffing changes here at the office while continuing to serve our amazing clients. We truly appreciate your patience as we settle into our new routine!

As previously shared, Monday and Thursday mornings are reserved for off-site CFO client meetings.

Today also includes one additional schedule adjustment.

🏥 This afternoon, Danielle will be attending pre-operative appointments in preparation for her upcoming shoulder surgery, so the office will be closed for the remainder of the day beginning at 1:00 PM.

☎️ If you need us while we're away, please leave us a voicemail and we'll return your call as soon as we're back in the office.

Thank you, as always, for your patience, flexibility, and continued support. Being a small business means wearing a lot of hats, and we're grateful to have clients who understand that sometimes life happens.

❤️ Good friends. Great service. That's what counts.

Scholarship awards can provide significant financial relief to families of college-bound students. Most, but not all, of the awards are tax-free. To qualify for tax-free status, scholarships must meet three criteria: 1) The student must be a degree candidate at an eligible educational institution, 2) the award must be used to pay for tuition and fees, books, and certain supplies (not room and board or travel), and 3) the award can’t represent wages for teaching or research. Many graduate student awards have employment compensation components, so they may be taxable. Also, taxable scholarship money could potentially be subject to the “kiddie” tax. Contact us at 708-864-4071 for more information.

There are many reasons individuals may need to access their tax transcripts. They include the need to file a tax return or apply for a mortgage or loan. In a Tax Tip (2026-25), the IRS lists several types of tax transcripts available for free to taxpayers. A tax return transcript shows most line items from the taxpayer’s original Form 1040-series tax return, along with any forms and schedules. It’s available for the current and three prior tax years. A tax account transcript shows basic information such as filing status, taxable income and payment types. It’s generally available for the current and nine prior tax years.

🌈🐾 Today is National Rainbow Bridge Day. 🐾🌈

Today, we're remembering the pets who left paw prints on our hearts and changed our lives forever.

For Danielle, this day carries an especially personal meaning.

Over the course of just 11 weeks this summer, Danielle had to say goodbye to three of her own fur babies. Anyone who has experienced that kind of loss knows they aren't "just pets." They are family. They greet us after long days, comfort us when we need it most, celebrate life's happiest moments with us, and somehow make even the hardest days a little easier.

While the heartbreak never completely goes away, neither does the love. ❤️

Today, we're remembering every wagging tail, every happy greeting at the door, every silly habit, every cuddle, and every memory that made them so incredibly special.

If you've ever loved and lost a pet, we'd love to honor them with you today.

🌈🐾 Please share a photo, tell us their name, or share a favorite memory in the comments below. Let's fill this post with the incredible companions who made our lives better simply by being part of them.

Because love like that never ends.

❤️ Good friends. Great service. That's what counts.
