In this episode of 'Dr. Friday Tax Tips - One Minute Moment,' Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday's Tax and Financial Firm, discusses the crucial aspects of student loan interest deductions. The focus is on the income thresholds that affect eligibility for this deduction. For single filers, the deduction begins to phase out at $75,000 and is completely phased out at $90,000. For married couples, these limits are set at $155,000 and $185,000, respectively. Dr. Friday emphasizes the importance of being aware of these income limits, as exceeding them means losing eligibility for the deduction. For personalized tax assistance, Dr. Friday encourages listeners to contact her directly. Also, she reminds listeners to tune into the Dr. Friday Call and Show every Saturday afternoon for more tax insights.

Student loan interest deductions lets borrowers write off up to $2,500 for their taxable income if paid interest on their student loan. Now this is one of those that is means tested guys, so that means that if you earn between $75,000 and $90,000, by $90,000 you're not going to get the deduction for single individuals. It starts means testing at $155,000 up to $185,000 for a married couple. Very important numbers because obviously if you're claiming this, you make them too much money, the interest isn't going to be a tax deduction. Need help with taxes? Call me. 615-367-0819.

It's up to Carter to stop a group of cultists and their leader from their plot to doom the world.Call Girl of Cthulhu was a welcome surprise.

“Charlie going golfing” “Went live to the tax meeting” “ Our Friday call from the call in guy” “Trump is coming to town”
It's Casual Friday! As summer winds down, Sam and Emma take the first hour to do a big call-in show! They first touch on Biden's speech on keeping the flame of liberty alight, calling out the extremists that dominate and drive the GOP, while still saving time to remind us of the good Republicans that he worked with back in the day. Sam and Emma also dive into Ron Johnson's statements on solving labor shortage with the elderly, the Republican scramble to make up for the inauthenticity and lackluster charisma of their Thiel candidates, the GOP's coordinatedly stupid response to Student Loan relief, and the next children's hospital to be a target of Matt Walsh and Chaya Raichik's stochastic terrorism. With fans calling in at 646-257-3920 to chat with the MR Crew, they then tackle topics including student loans, the falling GOP support ahead of the midterms, bringing in more support for the left, gun control failures on both the right and left, and critiques of how yesterday's interview positioned rural farms owners' relationship to their undocumented workers. They also enjoy discussions with callers over the capitalist achievement of ice cream cake, Emma's new sports show (ESVN airing Tuesday at 4 pm!), the #DropKiwiFarms initiative, and overcoming the blackpill.

No longer. 2007 there was one and we had to pay back $500 every year and then in 2008 they gave another one that was not paid back. But at this time there is no federal on your tax return homebuyers credit. It doesn't mean that's not a great investment, but it's important to make sure you understand when you're figuring out your tax bill. Because nowadays with the higher standard deduction sometimes buying a house may have a zero effect on your taxes. And often they sell you a home thinking that you're going to save tax dollars when you buy it. If you've got questions, call me at (615) 367 0819.

Children under the age of 18 working for mom and dad in their business. Partnership? Sole proprietorship? Awesome idea, people! Why not have kids work, learn that they're going to have to work, put some of that money into either an IRA, teach them how much money actually are they going to come home with? And guess what, there are some wonderful tax advantages. Do not withhold Social Security or Medicare tax kids if it's under 6000 or even 12. If you did contribute five to an IRA may not be taxable. You need to find out how to put more money in your pocket by calling me at (615) 367 0819.

Many times people start out companies and, let's be honest, it starts towards the end of the year. Maybe you don't have a lot of sales or maybe just got it started in just in operations but never really got it off the ground yet. Remember, LLC members can deduct startups and organizational expenses incurred during the company's first year of operation up to $5,000. So sometimes you can get a little head start, get a little tax advantage or relief on taking some of those losses. If you did not put $5,000 in a business in a K-1 pass through company you cannot deduct $5,000 as a loss This is important. Call me. (615) 367-0819.

They're going to be here before you know it. We're going to be issuing them out to our subcontractors. Make sure now that you have a W-9 filled out to test their name, address, Social Security or Federal ID number. Make sure that information is correct because the IRS does charge a penalty or charge a fine if you don't file 1099s. If they're filed incorrectly and you can't justify it, make sure you have the information now before the crazy season starts and then it's a lot harder to track them down. And my suggestion, never give someone a check without them completing a W-9 form if they're a subcontractor. Call me. (615) 367-0819.

One of the disadvantages to interest rates being so low is that people can actually spend a little bit more money on their homes, possibly ending up with bigger mortgages. In 2018 and later, the maximum amount of your mortgage that you can have is $750,000. Now that is a new mortgages sign as of December 15, 2017, moving forward. So if you have a brand new mortgage and that would include a refinance, then you might want to make sure $750,000. It used to be a million dollars. So you'd have to amortize the difference in the mortgage interest. If you've got questions, call me (615) 367 0819. Announcer 0:52 You can catch the Doctor Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 pm to 3 pm right here on 99.7 WTN.
Dr. Friday 0:00 Good day. I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one minute moment. Tax changes that came into effect in December 2017 are limited for individuals. So keep in mind, if these tax changes are helping you which, for most of us, there are some advantages other than not paying as much in taxes. You might want to reconsider how or what you're doing when it comes to the way you're formatting your income. You've only got till 2025 and those tax deductions are going to change. So instead of paying 12%, you'll be back up to 15%. Instead of paying 22%, you're going to be back up to 25 and so on. So it's important to understand we've got a short window here to maybe maximize some tax savings and help you put more money in your pocket. Call me at (615) 367 0819.

Because a lot of times it can be very confusing. In fact, I've always thought that maybe they should rethink the top section of it. Because when it starts asking you are you head of household? Do you do this do you do that? Next thing you know someone's actually single and zero but they're claiming single in two or three because they feel some of those apply to them. It's very simple as far as I'm concerned, especially though, if you're a married couple and you're both making more than $50,000-$60,000. Most likely one of you is going to have to claim married and zero, maybe the other one single and zero, to have enough withholding. Make sure you don't mess up on your withholdings.

Dr. Friday 0:00 Good day. I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one minute moment. Home office. You know, many years, we've been taking home office for small businesses as a deduction. But coming about five years ago or so they came up with a simplified system. And I know a lot of people don't really know this. The standard deduction is $5 per square feet up to 300 square feet. That way, you don't have to worry about taking the square footage of how much utilities were, your mortgage insurance, your property taxes, all these different things. All that is straight out. Five times up to 300 square feet. You might want to find a simplified manner that is a little bit easier. Call me if you've got questions (615) 367-0819.

You know, there are more ways to give to charity than just cash and many people will give clothing, household furnishing, cars. And cars are a bit tricky because it used to be whatever the blue book value of the car was, they got to deduct on their tax return. Not so much anymore. That law changed several years ago. And just so you know, when you deduct a car, you have to deduct the amount that the charity received for that car when they sell it. If they don't sell it, it is not something you're going to be able to do take off your taxes immediately. Call me (615) 367 0819.

Dr. Friday 0:00 Good day. I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one minute moment What is a tax deduction for medical expenses? The IRS allows you to deduct qualified medical expenses that exceed 7.5% of your income for 2017 and 2018. But coming 2019, when we get ready to do this year guys, it is 10% of your adjusted gross income. So it's very important if you're getting ready to do your taxes, you may need to recalculate. Sometimes with medical, it's a lot like charitable and property taxes in my opinion, you need to plan it. So the big years you also have other deductions that may be itemized. Call me if you've got questions (615) 367 0819 or check me out on the web at drfriday.com.

Have you been getting some phone calls from maybe anti-taxation groups, basically arguing, saying we should not have to pay taxes? It's against the 5th Amendment, the Constitution, the 16th Amendment? And the answer is it's not. The truth is the courts changed that back on February 3, 1913 people. So if you're a person that believes that taxation is not fair that you should not have to pay taxes because it's not a part of the amendment, you might want to look at the tax courts and see lately how many people they put in federal prison for not filing taxes. That's not the answer. Let's comply and get you back on track. Call me (615) 367 0819.

Remember in 2018 we had a huge tax change and one of it was reimbursement for employees. Many of my truck drivers lost several thousands of dollars in tax credits because they were no longer able to take their per diem because they are W-2 employees and the 2106 fell off the tax code. That is still in play in the 2019 tax year. Make sure you're making the proper adjustments to your W-2 or W-4 information. So on the W-2, you have all the right deductions. If you need help, you don't understand, and you just seem like you're paying a lot of taxes, you need to call me (615) 367 0819.

Are you an individual that has to do 1099s or even W-2s and miss cases for your employees? First thing when we're talking 1099s, are you treating that person the correct way based on the law? I know you're sitting there saying, "Well, I don't want to have to pay more taxes." But the penalties for misclassifying an employee is pretty steep. And the Federal Department of Labor is out there going through businesses, auditing them, and trying to make sure that people are classifying their employees correctly. If you don't know if you are supposed to have them as employees, or if they're supposed to be at 1099s, you need to call me.

We are going to give a busy year this year and one of the things you want to prepare for is do you have the right amount of withholdings coming out of your paycheck? They're telling us from the Internal Revenue Service. They're saying that people did not adjust their withholdings properly. They're finding quite a few people are having either too much or too little because they're playing with their dependents. It's very important to just get it done right.

Many times people come in and they're like, well, I've had to, you know, pay legal fees to get a will, a trust, maybe had to settle some sort of dispute. And the answer is no, the only time legal fees are a tax deduction, if you can tie it to a business.

Can I claim a tax deduction for college tuition? Absolutely. If you're an individual and you're the tax payer, you may be able to qualify for tuition and fee deduction up to $4,000. And that's on a Form 8917. There are also deductions if your children are in school. Make sure you get the Form 1098-T. Very important, without that you cannot claim the credit. It's important to understand where you can get tax credit and where you cannot because what you don't want to do is leave money on the table. If you need help or understand or maybe you're just not sure if you're getting everything from the tax code as you're supposed to, call me (615) 367-0819.

Can I claim a tax deduction for a newspaper subscription? This is an email I just received the other day and I thought it was kind of interesting because I so often think that people are digging and digging, trying to figure out what can be a tax deduction. Keep in mind that unless it's a business deduction, where you have continued education coming through it, or you're using it as a way of earning income, and employees, that's not going to work any longer. We do not have reimbursed employee expenses. So it has to be a small business owner, and then you'd have to prove that it was something that was used for business purposes, but it could be under those circumstances. Call me if you've got questions. (615) 367-0819. Announcer You can catch the Doctor Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 pm to 3 pm right here on 99.7 WTN.

One of the things I am surprised about is sometimes when I review people's taxes, I find things they don't take... and one of those is claiming your daycare. Many cases people actually have children that are 13 and under 12 and under, and they actually go to camp in the summertime. Day camp, not overnight camp, but day camp. Keep in mind that if your child is that age, and they going to day camp, that is daycare as far as the IRS is concerned. So you can deduct the cost of your YMCA for the day, or if they're going to computer camp, whatever it might be. Remember, don't leave any money on the table.

Can grandparents get a tax deduction for contributing to a 529 plan? Yes, grandparents can claim the deduction for contributing to a 529 plan if they live in one of 34 states that offer a state income tax deduction for 529 plan. I will let you know Tennessee is not one of those states. So it's still a great thing to help save for your grandkid's graduation or college education. But the fact is, it's not going to be a tax deduction on your federal tax return. And since we really don't have a state income tax, then we're not going to get much advantage.

Many people keep saying they're not deductible, they're not deductible. Well, that's not true. The fact is they are deductible differences is that you have to meet your standard deduction first. So sometimes I call it even odd. You might want to rethink how you're doing your itemizing. Some years, you might want to just take the standard deduction, and then double up on your charitable contributions and your property taxes in the next year. That way, you might find out that itemizing one year and taking a standard deduction next year may put more money in your pocket. If you need help with some tax planning or understanding your taxes, call me at (615) 367-0819.

Well, in most cases the answer is going to be no. You can carry forward charitable contributions that exceed 50% of your AGI investment interest in most cases and points obtained on a mortgage. Those would be the ones you can. So if you have other things like mortgage interest, property taxes, if you pay them in this year, you have to deduct them in this year. It's not one of those things where well it doesn't really qualify, so I'll roll it over to next year. It can't be done. So make sure you're doing things in advance. Think about it. You can pay your property taxes in advance or hold off. You need to know your taxes. Call me if you've got questions.

Should you start gifting out money from your estate maybe to help lower the taxes? And the answer could be yes but there's a lot more to it. Remember 11.4 per person is roughly what the IRS is saying you can pass through your estate, and that's a lifetime of giving and gifting money away. So the question comes down to is who pays the tax? Remember, it's always the person giving the money that pays the tax. So if you receive a gift, you do not pay the taxes. So make sure if you're going to be gifting people money that you're tracking it and filing it with the IRS. You've got questions (615) 367-0819.

Last year there was a lot of confusion about small business owners, deducting meals and entertainment. And the question basically comes, can they or can they not? The rules really haven't changed. I know a lot of people got very frustrated because at one point they were trying to remove it, but it was really more about employee reimbursement plans than it was small business owners. If the meal or entertainment is tied to generating income in the running of your business, it is still a legitimate trackable expense. Don't leave money on the table. Make sure you understand your tax laws to make sure you're putting more money in your pocket. Call me.

Is it true that alimony is no longer a deduction? Answer is yes, it is true! Under the new tax laws if you divorce... now this is very important. If you were divorced before December 31 2018, nothing changed. You are still going to pay tax on alimony, you're still going to deduct. If you divorce as of January 1 2019, you will not be deducting alimony and you will not be paying tax on alimony. Very important change for some people. So make sure you don't make that mistake because I have helped people thinking that they no longer have to pay taxes. So if you've got questions, call me.

Some of our popular deductions and credits did change last year. Remember dependent exemptions? Gone. That was the $4,050 for each person that was a qualified child in your household. Instead, children under the age of 17 now qualify for a child tax credit, which is $2,000, not $1000. Again, that went up. And many people are going to be able to use more of that because they are phasing out at a higher income bracket. So make sure you're looking at all your tax deductions.

Should I take a standard deduction or itemize? You know, I always find it so fascinating that people really, really, really want to itemize. Itemizing in itself means that you have a lot of debt because the biggest thing we can itemize in most cases is mortgage interest. Now there are obviously charitable contributions, which I have many clients that do give a lot of money. Itemizing only wins when you're doing it, but the fact is, the standard deduction right now keeps going up. So we got $12,200, $24,400 in the 2019 tax year. So if you can't itemize, don't worry. Just make sure you pay your debts. Call me if you have questions. Announcer You can catch the Doctor Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from two to 3pm right here on 99.7 WTN.

Nearly 2 million ITIN numbers will be expiring by the end of 2019. For all of you that aren't sure, that's an individual tax ID number. Many of my clients have those because I don't like my clients using their social security number if they have a small business. Every time you fill out a W9 or you have something that has to go out, I'd much rather have an EIN number on it. But if you haven't used it in a while, (couple years) or it ends with 83, 84, 85, 86, or 87, you need to make sure it's in good standing.
