How to Prepare

随着年底的临近,你可能有机会改善你的税务状况. 有效的税务规划可以帮助减少当前和未来几年的所得税. The outline below highlights some of these tax saving opportunities. 这些项目适用于联邦税收目的和州税收处理可能有所不同. 如果您想讨论这些机会,请ebet真人娱乐下载您当地的注册ebet真人娱乐下载师团队和ebet真人娱乐下载专业人士, we are ready to assist!

Contribute the Max to Retirement Accounts

试着增加你的401(k)缴款,这样你就能投入允许的最大金额(20美元),500 for 2022, $27,000 if you are age 50 or over). 或者,至少贡献出你的雇主会匹配的金额. Pre-tax contributions reduce your taxable wages.

Also consider contributing to an IRA. 你必须在2023年4月18日之前缴纳2022年的个人退休账户. 作出可扣除的IRA缴款将减少你当年的应税收入. 2022年,你最多可以缴纳6000美元,如果你年满50岁,还可以再缴纳1000美元.

Offset Capital Gains

考虑一下你的投资组合,看看哪些股票你可以卖掉,从而产生税收损失来抵消你的资本收益. Short-term capital gains are taxed at ordinary income tax rates, 因此,利用亏损来掩盖今年确认的短期资本利得可能是一项明智的税收举措. If your capital losses exceed your capital gains, you are allowed a capital loss deduction up to $3,000 and can carry over the excess losses to future years.

Withholding and Estimated Taxes

如果你期望在年底前收入大幅增加,或者有重大的工作或生活变化, consider adjusting your withholding or estimated tax payments. 如果你交的钱不够,在你提交所得税申报表时,你可能会收到一笔意想不到的账单. 对于全年未缴纳足够税款的纳税人,可以评估少缴税款的罚款.

Donations to a qualified charitable organization can be deducted, subject to certain percentage limitations, if you itemize deductions. 随着标准扣除额的增加,你可以不列出每年的项目. 使用集中策略将捐款堆积到一个纳税年度可以最大限度地提高捐款的税收影响.

Business Considerations

100% Business Meals Expense Deduction

另外,从1月1日起,向饭店支付的食品和饮料的营业扣除的临时例外也将增加到100%, 2021 through December 31, 2022. 商务餐50%的限制仍然适用于从杂货店或便利店等其他场所购买的食品和饮料.

Health Insurance for >2% S-Corp Shareholders

If you are a >2% owner of an S corporation and the business has paid for your health insurance or reimbursed you for the cost, make sure the cost is included on your W-2. If the health insurance is not included on your W-2, it will be treated as an itemized deduction subject to the 7.5% of AGI limitation which can limit or eliminate the deduction.

Purchase Business Assets

奖金折旧率为100%,并增加了第179条费用的限额, 你可以在12月31日之前支付你购买并投入使用的大部分资产的全部成本, 2022. 合格的奖金折旧和第179条购买包括新的和使用过的个人财产,如机器, equipment, computers, and furniture. 对于2022年之后投入使用的房产,奖金折旧比例将以每个日历年20%的速度逐步降低.

Business Retirement Plans

小企业减少税收的最好方法之一是建立一个退休计划. 企业可以通过资助合格的退休储蓄计划来降低应税收入. Additionally, tax credits may be available for certain businesses.

Home Office Deduction

你可能有资格获得家庭办公室扣除,这可以帮助你减少你已经发生的住房费用税. 你必须经常使用你家的一部分专门用于开展业务,你的家应该是你的主要业务场所.

Don’t Assume You Are Taking Too Many Deductions

如果你允许的业务扣除超过你的业务收入,你就有一个年度的税收损失. 在对亏损做了一些修改后,税法将其称为“净经营亏损”(NOL). 如果你刚开始创业,你很可能会有一份NOL. 即使你的生意蒸蒸日上,你也有可能亏损一年. You can carry 2022 NOLs forward to future years, 以未来纳税义务节省的形式为您的企业创造利益.

What does all this mean? You should never stop documenting your deductions, and you should always claim all your rightful deductions.

Review How Your Business is Set Up

随着您的业务和收入的增长,您的业务的最佳税收结构形式可能会发生变化. 我们可以帮助您审查您的税收结构,并评估短期和长期的考虑,以帮助您确定是否转换您的业务的税收结构是有意义的.

Additional Considerations

Donations to Charity

如果你采取标准扣除额,你就不能再扣除现金捐款. 慈善扣除额的临时扩大限制将于2021年到期. 为了进行慈善扣除,你必须详细列出你的扣除项目.

Child Tax Credit

The child tax credit is back to previous amounts for 2022. The maximum credit is $2,每名17岁以下合资格子女可获000元,其他受养人可获500元.

Child and Dependent Care Credit

到2022年,儿童和受抚养人护理抵税额将恢复到之前的水平. The credit is 35 percent of up to $3,000 of qualifying expenses for one qualifying individual, or up to $6,000 of qualifying expenses for two or more qualifying individuals. 信用百分比是根据您的AGI减少的,并且是不可退还的.
