Rotary Club of Clarkston’s Annual Beer, Wine, Spirits and Food Tasting: 2021

Every couple of years, I spend part of my summer leaving the office.

That probably sounds strange coming from a CPA.

Moving into a new home is an exciting milestone, but one important task is often overlooked: updating your address with the IRS.

Summer means different things to different people.
For some, it’s beach vacations, backyard BBQs, and long weekends.

Do you own your own business? If so, make sure you are not missing this one simple deduction! If you use your car for work, your mileage could be saving you money on taxes.

Walking into your first CPA appointment as a small business owner can feel a little intimidating. You might wonder if you’re bringing the right paperwork, if your records are organized enough, or if your CPA is about to discover the “creative bookkeeping system” you’ve been using since opening day.

For self-employed individuals, freelancers, business owners, and investors, quarterly estimated tax payments are an important part of staying compliant with IRS requirements. Missing a payment can result in penalties, interest charges, and unnecessary stress. Fortunately, TaxDome makes it easier than ever to stay organized with automated reminders and client communication tools.

We know—writing a check to the IRS and State is probably not on your summer bucket list.

If you’re a freelancer, gig worker, or small business owner who gets paid through platforms like PayPal, Venmo, Etsy, or Uber, there are important tax changes you need to be aware of.

When you think “summer,” taxes probably don’t make the list – and honestly, we get it. You should be thinking about vacations, BBQs, and soaking up the sunshine.
