Are you aware of the 2026 contribution limits for tax-advantaged retirement accounts? If not, we’ve got you covered, with a quick look at what’s changing:

✅ 401(k), 403(b), 457, and TSP limits will increase to $24,500 (up from $23,500).
✅ Workers age 50+ can contribute an additional $8,000 (up to $32,500 total).
✅ IRA contribution limits will rise to $7,500, with a $1,100 catch-up option.
✅ “Super catch-up” contributions for ages 60-63 remain at $11,250.

Now is a good time to evaluate your current savings plan, explore your IRA options, and decide whether catch-up contributions make sense for your 2026 goals.

If you’re self-employed, it may also be worthwhile to review whether your SEP IRA or solo 401(k) plan needs an update.

Need help navigating these changes? Contact us to discuss how you can maximize these increased limits for your retirement strategy.

🧾 Tax-Free Alert: Ohio’s Sales Tax Holiday Runs August 1–14!
For the first time, Ohio is offering a two-week tax holiday where most items priced at $500 or less are exempt from sales tax — no back-to-school limits or item restrictions (aside from vehicles, watercraft, alcohol, to***co, and marijuana-based products).

✅ This is a great time to:
•Make big purchases for your home or business
•Save on electronics, furniture, tools, and more
•Support local businesses every dollar counts

📌 Keep your receipts and document your purchases, especially if you’re a small business — this can be helpful for budgeting and tax prep later.

Need guidance on how this may affect your purchases or business accounting? We’re just a call away.

Are you maximizing your home office deduction? If you work from home, this one’s for you!

Under the IRS rules, a taxpayer is allowed to deduct expenses related to business use of a home, but only if the space is used "exclusively" on a "regular basis." To qualify for a home office deduction you must meet one of the following requirements:

Exclusive and regular use as your principal place of business

A place for meeting with clients or customers in the ordinary course of business

A place for the taxpayer to perform administrative or management activities associated with the business, provided there is no other fixed location from which the taxpayer conducts a substantial amount of such administrative or management activities
