Don't Miss Out on Year-End Tax-Planning Opportunities


To say COVID-19 has made 2020 a disastrous year for just about everyone would be an understatement.

There is More to Deducting Health Insurance than Meets the Eye


Health insurance premiums, especially in the wake of the Affordable Care Act, have risen dramatically and are one of the greatest expenses that most individuals pay. Although the cost of health insurance is allowed as part of an individual’s medical deductions when itemizing deductions, only the amount of total medical expenses that exceeds 7.5% of the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income (AGI) is deductible.
