- Dependents & Medical Expenses
- Medical expenses paid for dependents may be deducted. To claim these expenses, the person must have been a dependent either at the time the medical services were provided or at the time the expenses were paid.
- To File or Not to File
- A frequent question asked is whether or not an individual needs to file a tax return. There are two issues associated with this question:
- A Name Change Can Complicate Tax Filing
- If you changed your name as a result of a recent marriage or divorce, you will want to take the necessary steps to ensure the name on your tax return matches the name registered with the Social Security Administration (SSA). A mismatch between the name shown on your tax return and the SSA records can cause problems in the processing of your return and may even delay your refund.
- Your Payroll Tax Cut is Safe for Now!
- Congress gave all wage earners a short-lived 2012 reprieve by temporarily extending the 2% payroll tax cut though February of 2012.
- Only 2 Days Left For 2011 Tax Deductions
- We would like to remind you that the last day you may make a tax deductible purchase, pay a tax deductible expense or make a tax deductible charitable contribution for 2011 is Saturday Dec. 31.
