| Available Education Credits There are 2 credits allowed for higher education: the Hope Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit. You can claim the credits for eligible expenses paid on behalf of yourself, your spouse or a dependent for whom you can claim an exemption. Hope Credit — The credit is allowed for the first 2 years of college. It may not be claimed for more than 2 years, and the student must be enrolled in at least half of a full-time load in a degree program. Plus, the student can't be convicted of felony possession of a controlled substance. Lifetime Learning Credit — This credit can be claimed for any number of years. The number of hours the student is enrolled and drug felony convictions aren't factors for the Lifetime Learning Credit. You can claim both credits for one year, but you can claim only 1 of the credits for any student. For example, you can claim a Hope Credit for 1 of your children and the Lifetime Learning Credit for another, but you can't claim both credits on behalf of either of the children. To claim the credit, modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) must be less than $58,000 for Single, Head of Household and Qualifying Widow(er) ($116,000 for Married Filing Jointly), and the student must be attending an eligible institution. Those who are Married Filing Separately can't claim the credits. If the parents are eligible to claim the student as a dependent, they claim the credit unless they choose not to claim the exemption for the student. The student can't claim his or her exemption even though he or she can claim the credit. Note: For students who attended an eligible educational institution in a Midwestern disaster area, the Hope Credit can be as much as $3,600. The Lifetime Learning Credit for such students is 40% of eligible expenses with a maximum credit of $4,000. These provisions apply for 2008 and 2009. Tuition and Fees Deduction If your MAGI is $65,000 ($130,000 if Married Filing Jointly) or less, you can deduct up to $4,000 of eligible tuition and fees for yourself, your spouse or a person for whom you claim a dependent exemption. If your MAGI is between $65,000 and $130,000 ($130,000 and $160,000 if Married Filing Jointly), you can deduct up to $2,000 of eligible tuition and fees. If your MAGI is more than $80,000 ($160,000 or more if Married Filing Jointly) you can't claim the tuition and fees deduction. You can't claim the deduction if you're Married Filing Separately, if another person can claim you as a dependent, or if you were a nonresident alien for any part of the year (unless you elect to be treated as a resident alien). You can claim the tuition and fees deduction or an education credit for a student, but not both. Choose the benefit that results in the larger tax savings. You can't use expenses used to figure this deduction when figuring the exclusion for savings bonds interest or the exclusion for income from a distribution from a Coverdell ESA or QTP. You also must reduce the expenses used to figure this deduction by the amount of tax-free scholarships and nontaxable employer-provided educational assistance you received. Student Loan Interest Deduction You may be able to deduct up to $2,500 of interest payments on a qualified student loan if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is less than $70,000 ($145,000 if Married Filing Jointly). You can't deduct student loan interest if someone else claims you as a dependent or if you're Married Filing Separately. For the Student Loan Interest Deduction, a dependent includes the following: An individual who was not eligible to be claimed as a dependent because the individual filed a joint return. An individual who was not eligible to be claimed as a dependent because the individual had gross income of $3,500 or more. An individual for whom you can't claim an exemption only because you're the dependent of another taxpayer. The loan can't be from a related person or made under a qualified employer plan. You can deduct the interest only if you are legally required to make payments on the loan. The student must be enrolled at least half-time in a program leading to a degree or other recognized educational credential. You can't claim the deduction for student loan interest if a deduction for the interest would be allowed under another rule (for example, under the rules for home mortgage interest). The Student Loan Interest Deduction is taken as an adjustment to income, so you can claim this deduction even if you don't itemize deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040). Work-related Education and Employer-provided Educational Assistance You may be able to deduct the cost of qualifying work-related education as a business expense if you weren't reimbursed by your employer or if the cost exceeded your reimbursement. You can claim the deduction only if you itemize deductions. The deduction is one of the deductions subject to the 2% of adjusted gross income floor. The education must also meet one of these criteria: The education is required by law or by your employer to keep your present salary, status or job. The education maintains or improves skills needed in your present work. If the education is needed solely to meet the minimum educational requirements of your present job, or will qualify you for a new trade or career, you can't deduct the educational expenses. Tuition and fees you can't deduct because they don't meet the requirements may be deductible as part of the tuition and fees deduction discussed below. It's generally better to claim the tuition and fees deduction. If you receive educational assistance benefits from your employer under an educational assistance program, you can exclude up to $5,250 of those benefits each year. Payments in excess of $5,250 are taxable unless the payment qualifies as a working condition fringe benefit. The payment will qualify under this provision if you could deduct the education expense if you paid for it. Benefits include payments for tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment. The payments may be for either undergraduate- or graduate-level courses. To qualify, the plan must be written. Your employer will include the taxable amount (if any) in your W-2 wages. |

| TAX AMENDMENT To file an amended return, you must fill out Form 1040-X. On the back of the form, you need to explain the specific changes being made on the return and the reason for each change. Filing an Amended Return To file an amended return, fill out Form 1040-X - Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return and include copies of any schedules that have been changed or any W-2s you did not include with your original return. To be entitled to a refund, the form generally must be filed within 3 years after the date you filed the original return or within 2 years after the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. Completing Form 1040-X Form 1040-X is designed with 3 columns. Column A is used to show the figures from the original return. Column C is used to show the correct figures. The difference between the figures in Columns A and C is shown in Column B. On the back of the form, you need to explain the specific changes being made on the return and the reason for each change. If the changes involve another schedule or form, attach it to Form 1040-X. Be sure to enter the year of the return you're amending. There are exceptions to the 3-year rule for certain items such as net operating losses, general business credit carrybacks, bad debts and worthless securities. Review the instructions to Form 1040-X for other exceptions. If you are filing more than 1 amended return, be sure to mail each return in a separate envelope to the service center for the area in which you live. A change in your federal return may affect your state tax liability and require an amended state return. For information on state changes, contact your state's Department of Revenue. |
| You filed on time but didn't pay all of your balance due. You'll generally have to pay a late-payment penalty of 0.5% of the tax owed for each month, or part of a month that the tax remains unpaid after the due date, up to 25% of the tax due. The 0.5% rate increases to 1% if the tax remains unpaid after several notices have been sent to you, and the IRS issues a notice of intent to levy. The penalty will not be imposed if you can show reasonable cause for the failure to pay. You haven't filed or paid your balance due. If you did not file on time, and you owe tax, you may owe a late-filing penalty in addition to the late-payment penalty unless you can show reasonable cause. The combined penalty is 5% (4.5% late filing, 0.5% late payment) for each month, or part of a month, that your return is late. The late-filing penalty is generally imposed for a maximum of 5 months. However, after 5 months, if you still have not paid, the 0.5% late-payment penalty continues to run, up to 25%, until the tax is paid. So, the combined maximum penalty may be as high as 47.5% [(4.5% x 5 months) + 25%]. Note: If your return is more than 60 days late, the minimum late-filing penalty is the smaller of $135 or 100% of the tax required to be shown on the return. You're paying taxes through an installment agreement. If you or your tax professional filed Form 9465 requesting an installment payment plan, and the IRS accepted your installment payment plan, they will charge you an administrative fee plus interest on the unpaid tax. If you filed a timely return and are paying your tax due according to an installment agreement, the late-payment penalty is 0.25% (instead of 0.5%) for each month, or part of a month, that the tax remains unpaid. Regardless of which category you fall into, you'll owe interest on any balance due from the due date of the return until the date of payment. The interest rate is adjusted every 3 months. |
| FILING YOUR TAXES LATE: If you file on time, but don't pay the entire balance you'll be charged a late payment penalty of 0.5%, up to 25%, of the unpaid tax. You may be penalized up to 47.5% of your unpaid tax if you don't file your return on time. If you request an installment payment plan for your taxes, and the IRS accepts it, you'll be charged a fee plus interest on all unpaid taxes. |
| ''How to Maximize Your Tax Deductions Ten Top Tax Tips!'' Do you dread tax time? You don’t have to. Most real estate investors actually look forward to April 15th. Why? Because despite the current condition of our housing and mortgage industries, real estate provides more tax benefits than almost any other investment. And maximizing your tax deductions only makes good business sense. That being said, let’s take a look at 10 of the best tax deductions available to you as an owner of investment property: 1. Mortgage Interest Interest might be your single biggest deductible expense. Common examples of interest that landlords can deduct include mortgage interest payments on loans used to acquire or improve rental property and interest on credit cards for goods or services used in a rental activity. (Any points or closing costs paid on a mortgage loan secured by an income-producing property are also deductible.) 2. Depreciation Depreciation is the loss in value of an asset or building over time due to wear and tear, physical deterioration and age. The IRS allows you to depreciate income-producing properties over their useful life (27.5 years for residential and 39 years for commercial). You’ll be thankful every year at tax time if you use depreciation correctly. 3. Insurance You can deduct the premiums you pay for almost any insurance for your rental activity. This includes fire, theft, and flood insurance for rental property, as well as landlord liability insurance. And if you happen to have employees, you can deduct the cost of their health and workers’ compensation insurance. 4. Homeowner’s Association (HOA) Dues Yep, that’s right. If you own a real estate investment property within a subdivision that charges those annoying quarterly HOA fees, you can write those off your taxes. 5. Repairs The cost of repairs to rental property is fully deductible in the year they are incurred. Good examples of deductible repairs include repainting, new flooring, fixing leaks, plastering, and replacing broken windows. 6. Personal Property This includes such items as furniture, appliances, lawn mowers, snow removal equipment, etc. which are not permanently attached to the land. 7. Home Office Provided they meet certain minimal requirements, you may deduct your home office expenses. This deduction applies not only to space devoted to office work, but also to a workshop or any other home workspace you use for your rental business. 8. Travel Landlords are entitled to a tax deduction whenever they drive anywhere for their rental activity. For example, when you drive to your rental building to deal with a tenant complaint or go to the hardware store to purchase a part for a repair, you can deduct your travel expenses. And believe it or not, you can even deduct your long distance travel! If you travel overnight for your rental activity, you can deduct your airfare, hotel bills, meals, and other expenses. If you plan your trip carefully, you can even mix business with pleasure and still take a deduction! 9. Employees and Independent Contractors Whenever you hire anyone to perform services on your investment property, you can deduct their wages as a rental business expense. This is true whether the worker is an employee (for example, a resident manager of an apartment complex) or an independent contractor (for example, a repair person or maintenance guy). 10. Legal and Professional Services Finally, you can deduct fees that you pay to attorneys, accountants, property management companies, real estate investment advisors, and other professionals. You can deduct these fees as operating expenses as long as the fees are paid for work related to your rental activity. |

| 1. File early. The early bird gets the tax refund. Get your tax return in early, when the IRS is processing fewer returns, and you will probably get your refund faster. The agency began accepting electronic returns this week. -------------- 2. Look for errors. Double- check everything, including the easy stuff such as your name, Social Security number and bank routing number. Mistakes on tax returns can lengthen the processing time and delay your refund by weeks or months. ----------------- 3. File electronically. Processing of paper returns can take weeks longer than e-filed returns, holding up your refund. IRS e-file or other tax preparation software also catches any mathematical errors that could also end up delaying your refund. Last year, almost nine out of 10 taxpayers filed their taxes electronically. Those with adjusted incomes of less than $64,000 can file free. --------------- 4. Choose direct deposit. The fastest way to get your refund is to have it deposited directly into a financial account, according to the IRS. The agency even allows the refunds to be deposited in multiple accounts. All that’s needed is the account number and routing number, usually found at the bottom of a check from the account. Finally, once you’ve filed, you can track your refund using the Where’s My Refund? tool from the IRS. = Where's My Refund? - It's Quick, Easy and Secure. = For more information, visit: facebook.com/ knowledge financialgroup and also - facebook.com/ femkonsa |
