💰 **October Tax Q&A: What Is the SALT Deduction?**

🏡 Did you know that the state and local taxes you pay could help reduce your federal income tax bill?

The **State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction** allows eligible taxpayers who itemize to deduct certain state and local taxes, including property taxes and state income or sales taxes.

💡 **What's New for 2026?**

✅ The SALT deduction limit has increased to **$40,400** for eligible taxpayers.

✅ The deduction can be especially beneficial for homeowners and taxpayers living in higher-tax states like New York.

✅ Higher-income taxpayers may face a reduced deduction limit.

Understanding how these changes affect your tax situation could help you make smarter financial decisions and potentially reduce your tax liability.

📊 At **Hedley & Company CPA**, we're here to help you navigate changing tax laws and make the most of available deductions.

🤝 **Who Is Your Trusted Contact?**

When it comes to protecting your financial future, having a solid plan is important—but have you considered who could help if something unexpected happens?

💡 A **trusted contact** is someone your financial institution may reach out to if there are concerns about potential financial exploitation, unusual account activity, or difficulty contacting you.

Choosing a trusted contact can add an extra layer of protection, especially as you approach retirement or plan for the years ahead.

✅ **Peace of Mind:** Have someone you trust available if concerns arise.

✅ **Added Protection:** Help safeguard against potential financial fraud or exploitation.

✅ **Better Communication:** Give your financial institution an additional point of contact when needed.

Remember, naming a trusted contact does **not** give that person authority to access your accounts or make financial decisions on your behalf.

🚗 **Thinking About Buying or Leasing a New Car? Read This First!**

A new vehicle is an exciting purchase, but making the right financial decision involves more than just picking your favorite make and model!

💡 Before driving off the lot, consider these three important factors:
