You may think of April as the best time to do your taxes, but in reality the ideal time to do your taxes is before the end of this year! Even if you don’t know exact final numbers, going with what you do know and plugging in those numbers quickly can save you a lot of money.
This applies mostly to folks who do not take the standard deduction but itemize their deductions. If that is Greek to you, do you own a house and have mortgage interest, plus tithe and other donations? Then this might be you.
Why do you want to stop what you are doing and do a dry run on your taxes? Because you still have a few days to make adjustments that could save you tax money! Don’t believe me? Read on to see why you should do your taxes early.
Why You Should Do Your Taxes Early
Small Business Owners—Section 179 Deduction
If you own your own business, this is the one deduction that will save you a chunk of money. You can buy equipment and deduct it faster than normal depreciation allows—up to $1,050,000 worth of equipment. I know it’s probably only .001% of us that would need that much, but even if you have a small business out of your house, this can be a big savings. Business taxes are crazy, so any savings you can get is huge. For small business owners this means that you can buy a new computer, printer, or even a car and save up to 55% of the price! The amount you save depends on your tax bracket. Purchases for this deduction must be made by 12/31.
On a side note, if you are a small business owner that has an accountant and they have never mentioned this deduction, it’s time to get a new accountant. Every business has equipment of some sorts and should be using this deduction.
Increase Donations
For anyone that itemizes their deductions, you want to make sure you can get all the donations counted by 12/31. If you are going to end up owning even a tiny bit on your taxes, wouldn’t you like to see now that if you donated that old TV and laptop to Goodwill that you would end up not owing any taxes? I would much rather make an extra donation to the church of $500 than pay the same amount in taxes.
Medical Needs
To claim medical expenses on your taxes is now really hard. You can only deduct expenses that were over 7.5% off your adjusted gross income (AGI). For ease of math and understanding, let’s say you make $40,000 .That means you can’t deduct the first $3,000 in expenses; only what is over that amount. Gather your receipts together now, though, because if you are super close to the threshold, then now might be a great time to see a doctor for something you’ve been putting off. We are cutting it a little close for this one, so tuck this away for next year, too.
