THE SEASON OF LENT -before EASTER.TODAY-FEBRUARY 17,2021. Also Meatless Fridays. We will ALL make Changes in our Lives. We hope these changes will be Profitable. Tax Season is a part of our Daily Lives. Our Families Grow and Learn by what is Done on a Yearly Basis There will not be a 3-month Extension from April 15th to July 15th,2021,as was the Case in 2020.However,filing in February will Help you to meet your Goals in 2021. In my View ,your Focus should be on your Stimulus Checks, any Unemployment and Non-Refundable or Refundable Tax Credits. The Standard Deduction has Risen for 2020. Itemizing on the Federal Form ,is Unlikely this Year. Schedule C Filers look at your Income with New Form 1099-NEC and Expenses ,Depreciation and IF a Profit in 3 out of 5 Years, Form 8829 Office-in Home. IF you have Employees of 5 or Less, look at the Employee Retention Credit in 2020 or in 2021. You may get a Maximum of $5,000 per Employee in 2020. In my View the Payroll Protection Loans maybe used in 2021.This Fore -Given Loan Programs is for the Larger Employer with 100 to 500 Full-Time Employees. Defer this for Tax Purposes, until after April 15,2021. IF you are Furloughed in 2021 , Do check with your Employer, First to See, IF you will Qualify for State Unemployment .ALWAYS have Taxes Withheld from your Job Less Benefits. Lastly in 2021,Increase the Federal Taxes Withheld on Wages and Pensions by February 28,2021.Use Forms W-4 and W-4P. Congress will Raise Some Taxes and Limit Tax Credits in 2022. In 2020 make use of the Charitable Tax Adjust on your Tax Returns. Spring is 4 Weeks, Away; but Snow may Linger through March 31,2021.WE all must ATONE or Change in 2021,and be Positive, during this Lenten Season. We have Lost so Many People in 2020; and We need to Carry their Wishes and Wants Through-Out 2021. God Bless All of You. FREDERICK B MUNSON,JR. ACCOUNTING SERVICES-FBM.
