Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing how almost everything is done, including how fraud is committed. For example, a scammer might use AI to generate “deepfake” voices or “spoof” caller ID information to impersonate IRS agents. AI also makes it easier for perpetrators to establish robocall networks. (The IRS always stresses that it will contact taxpayers via U.S. mail about any tax issues. It won’t leave urgent voice messages or threaten arrest.) Fraud aside, the IRS warns against relying on AI-generated responses to complex tax questions. Be sure to verify AI answers by reviewing IRS instructions and crunching any numbers yourself. Better yet, call us at (720) 530-0316 for assistance.

Do your employees pay out of pocket for business travel, meals or supplies? With a properly structured “accountable plan,” reimbursements are tax-free to employees and deductible for your business. (Remember, meals are generally only 50% deductible.) Without an accountable plan, reimbursements count as taxable wages and trigger income taxes for the employee and payroll taxes for both the employee and your business. Contact us at (720) 530-0316 to help ensure your reimbursement practices comply with the tax rules and minimize unintended tax consequences.

F**A taxes on W-2 wages are split equally between employee and employer. For self-employment income, you pay both halves, but the “employer” half is deductible. If you own and work in a business structured as a partnership, the income passing through to you for income tax purposes generally is also subject to self-employment taxes, even if it isn’t distributed to you. If your income exceeds certain levels, you also could be subject to the 0.9% additional Medicare tax. Call us at (720) 530-0316 to review your situation.

A temporary federal income tax deduction for interest on qualifying auto loans for 2025 through 2028 was created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The write-off, available even if you don’t itemize, is capped at $10,000 per tax return, subject to income-based phaseouts. It applies only to interest on first-lien loans to buy U.S.-assembled passenger vehicles for personal use. Leased, used and fleet vehicles are excluded. The IRS recently issued proposed regulations that clarify how the deduction works. For example, they address the “personal use” requirement. Contact us for details at (720) 530-0316.

Small business owners: Tax credits can reduce your tax bill dollar for dollar. But using them isn’t always straightforward. Many business credits fall under the general business credit (GBC), which limits how much you can claim each year and governs how unused credits are carried back or forward. Missteps can mean lost or delayed tax benefits. We help small businesses identify eligible credits, apply the GBC rules correctly and optimize their tax outcomes over time. Contact us at (720) 530-0316 to see whether you’re making the most of the credits available to you.

Did you know you can amend your tax return if you need to revise information after you filed it? Amended returns let taxpayers fix errors or omissions — such as income, deductions, credits or filing status — and make certain late elections. They can also be used to address tax law changes, claim losses and credit carrybacks, and more. You can e-file up to three amended returns per tax year. Usually, you have up to three years from the original filing deadline or two years from when you paid the tax, whichever is later, to claim a refund. But the rules can be complex. Contact us at (720) 530-0316 for guidance.
