If saving for a child’s, grandchild’s, or another family member’s education is one of your goals, a 529 plan may be worth a fresh look.

These plans are no longer viewed only as a college savings tool. Depending on the circumstances, they can help cover college costs, certain K–12 expenses, and even some apprenticeship or credentialing expenses, while still offering valuable tax advantages when the funds are used for qualified education purposes.

Swipe for a couple of frequently asked questions about 529 plans and what those considering them need to know.

If you have questions about whether a 529 plan makes sense for your family, please reach out to our team. We would be happy to help you think through your options.

Year-end tax planning often feels like something there will be time to deal with later, until later arrives all at once. Starting now can give your business more room to make smart decisions, avoid a last-minute rush, and take action while more options are still on the table.

One key end-of-year tax planning tip is to run a year-end tax projection. Before making any big moves, it helps to know where your income is likely to land. A year-end projection can help estimate taxable income and identify whether it makes sense to accelerate expenses, defer income where appropriate, increase retirement contributions, or adjust estimated tax payments.

Thoughtful year-end planning starts with understanding where you stand and which moves are worth making before the calendar turns. If you’re interested in running a year-end tax projection, contact our office. We are here to help your business.
