In other news, people with spinal cord injuries are getting a new lease on life thanks to a tiny neck implant paired with physical therapy. In a study published last month in the journal Nature, researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas showed that pairing a nearly dime-sized vagus nerve stimulator with targeted hand and arm exercises helped people with incomplete spinal cord injuries regain movement; sightings of the invasive Hammerhead worm have been on the rise in North Texas; and RJ Yoakum, one of Dallas' few remaining nominees for a James Beard Award, is no longer the executive chef at Dallas fine-dining restaurant Georgie.

Are you a PAYE employee spending your own money to do your job without getting reimbursed? You could be missing out on money that's legally yours through tax relief claims. This episode of the I Hate Numbers podcast breaks down everything you need to know about claiming work expenses online using HMRC's updated system. We explore what qualifies for tax relief, walk through the new online claiming process, and provide essential evidence requirements to ensure your claims succeed. From travel expenses and professional subscriptions to working from home costs, we cover the most common claimable expenses with real-world examples. Whether you're new to expense claims or looking to catch up on backdated claims, this episode gives you the practical knowledge to recover money you're entitled to. If you're an employee who pays for work-related expenses out of your own pocket, this episode will help you understand your rights and navigate HMRC's requirements with confidence. Main Topics & Discussion Understanding Tax Relief on Work Expenses Tax relief is available for PAYE employees who pay for work-related expenses from their own pocket without reimbursement. The key criterion is that expenses must be "wholly, exclusively, and necessarily incurred in the course of your job." This excludes personal items like lunch or your normal daily commute, but covers expenses directly connected to your work duties. What You Can Claim - The Essential Checklist Travel and Mileage: You can claim for travel outside your usual commute, including meetings, site visits, or temporary work locations. When using your own car, claim mileage at statutory rates (45p per mile for first 10,000 miles, then 25p thereafter). Public transport ticket costs are also claimable, but remember - your normal commute to the office doesn't count. Professional Fees and Subscriptions: Payments to trade bodies, professional groups, or governing bodies that are work-related and appear on HMRC's approved list qualify for relief. This includes trade unions, professional networks, and industry-specific memberships. Working from Home Costs: When your employer requires you to work from home (not by choice), you can claim a proportion of household costs including heating, lighting, and broadband. The key is proving it's a job requirement, not just convenience. Tools, Uniforms, and Equipment: Specialist gear, work clothing, and tools that your employer hasn't provided may qualify. HMRC offers flat-rate claims for uniform maintenance and toolkits for approved occupations. The New Online Claiming Process HMRC's online service for expense claims has been updated and relaunched. If your total claim is £2,500 or less in a single tax year and you're not required to complete a self-assessment tax return, you can claim online at gov.uk/tax-relief-for-employees/travel-and-overnight-expenses. For claims over £2,500 or if you already complete self-assessment, use your tax return instead. Essential Evidence Requirements

Episode 60: In this episode, Timalyn explains your right to appeal unfair IRS decisions and why you shouldn't give up. We are celebrating three years and 60 episodes of the Tax Relief with Timalyn Bowens podcast! Provisions from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act are set to expire in December, and many taxpayers are worried about IRS mistakes - especially after recent budget cuts and workforce reductions. Does this mean you have to accept wrongful IRS decisions? Timalyn says absolutely not. She explains that the IRS has an Independent Office of Appeals that provides fair, impartial review of disputes without going to court. These appeals officers are separate from regular IRS agents and focus only on the facts of your case. Timalyn emphasizes that this appeal process is your right as a taxpayer. She warns that with IRS staffing shortages, it's more important than ever to stand up for yourself when they make mistakes. Automated systems and overworked employees can lead to errors in levies, liens, or tax adjustments. Timalyn urges listeners to act quickly if disputing an IRS decision. The appeals process has strict deadlines, and professional help from an Enrolled Agent like Timalyn can make all the difference in getting a fair outcome. What do you think? Have you ever needed to appeal an IRS decision? Do you feel confident navigating the process if necessary? Need Tax Help Now?  If you need answers to your tax debt questions, book a consultation with Timalyn via her Bowens Tax Solutions website. Please consider sharing this episode with your friends and family. There are many people dealing with tax issues silently. This information might be exactly what someone you care about needs.

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and this is episode 122 of EO Radio Show. This episode on federal tax filing deadlines and penalties was first released in May of 2023. It focuses on the importance of meeting the federal tax filing deadlines that apply to charitable organizations. Most charities exempt from income tax are required to file a federal information return on the 15th day of the fifth month after the close of their fiscal year. For nonprofits that use the calendar year for accounting purposes, that's May 15th. If you haven't filed yet, don't despair. You've got a little bit of time. In this episode, I'll also touch on the penalties that can apply if your organization fails to meet these filing requirement deadlines. So listen in for more information about this important topic.

Episode 58: In this episode, Timalyn explains how much time you have to pay your tax bill and how much time the IRS legally has to collect.  Your tax balance is due on the due date of the return. However, when the IRS sends you a CP14, this Notice and Demand for Payment will give you 30 days to pay before the IRS uses any enforcement. This includes things like an IRS Lien or Levy.  If you can pay the debt off within 180 days you may qualify for a short-term installment agreement. This agreement can be arranged using your online IRS.gov account to set up an online payment agreement (OPA). If the amount is over $50,000 you will have to call the IRS to set up this arrangement.  Don't just assume you have 180 days.  A payment arrangement is a privilege, not a right. Communication is key when dealing with the IRS.  If the debt is $10,000 or less and you've been compliant the past 3 years you may be eligible for a Guaranteed Installment Agreement. Timalyn offers 1-1 consultations to help set this up at www.Bowenstaxsolutions.com . Timalyn also have an e-book you can purchase to walk you through the process, Guaranteed Payment Plan: How to Guarantee A Payment Plan with the IRS. Timalyn also goes into more detail about IRS Installment Agreements in Episode 10 of the Tax Relief with Timalyn Bowens podcast. Need Tax Help Now? If you need answers to your tax debt questions, book a consultation with Timalyn via her Bowens Tax Solutions website.  The IRS legally has 10 years from the time your taxes were assessed to collect on the debt. If you can't afford to pay the debt off within 72 months you may be able to get the payments lower. But this means that you will have to pay on the debt until the last day the IRS can collect. This is known as the collection statute expiration date (CSED). Please consider sharing this episode with your friends and family. There are many people dealing with tax issues, and you may not know about it. This information might be helpful to someone who really needs it. After all, back taxes shouldn't ruin their life either.

Local county auditors are putting out their plans for property tax relief, we discuss their call to action and a proposal by lawmakers that caps school savings.

Episode 57:  In this episode, Timalyn explains the reason you likely owe taxes this year. She highlights 5 common reasons that people owe each year. It is ultimately the responsibility of the taxpayer to ensure that they are withholding enough taxes. The top 2 reasons that people owe the IRS is because their withholding and/or estimated tax payments are off.  Timalyn has created a series on her YouTube channel to walk you through the process of correcting your withholding for a W-2 job, pension, or your social security. You can find this series below. Withholding Series If you are self-employed or make investment income you may need to make estimated tax payments. Timalyn discusses this in Episode 21 of this podcast. You can check it out here - Estimated Tax Payments.  In addition to those estimated tax payments, if you are self-employed, you are looking at a new tax, the self-employment tax. This is your share of Social Security and Medicare Tax. It's 15.3% of your net profit. Which is double what you'd pay if you were a wage earner. Timalyn explains this in more detail in Episode 8 - What is Self-Employment Tax? You may qualify to pay your balance over time. If you owe less than $50,000 and have been tax compliant, you may qualify to set up an OPA yourself using the IRS website. An OPA is an online payment arrangement.  The final 2 reasons that Timalyn discusses for you potentially owing are that you went through life changes that affected the deductions/credits you qualify for and you are in a higher tax bracket.  Both situations call for an adjustment to be made in your withholding or estimated tax payments. If you can't pay the current balance in full you may be eligible to request for an Installment Agreement with your tax return by using Form 9465, Request for Installment Agreement. Timalyn has a video on her YouTube channel that can walk you through the process.

Behind every great moment of American prosperity, there's been a bold move to let people keep more of what they earn. In this episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Chris Stio, Deputy Director of Staff Training at Americans for Prosperity, to trace the powerful history of tax reform in America—from the Civil War to JFK, from Reagan to the modern-day Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. It's more than a policy discussion—it's a story of what happens when government gets out of the way and trusts people to build, create, and thrive. Drawing on decades of economic history, Chris explains how lowering taxes has consistently empowered individuals, sparked growth, and lifted millions. He also reveals how the language we use—words like “tax relief”—can inspire action and shape the national conversation. As Tax Day approaches and Congress debates whether to let tax hikes kick in, this conversation is a rallying cry for action. Because when we cut through the noise and stand up for real reform, we're not just defending numbers on a page—we're defending opportunity, dignity, and the very promise of the American Dream.
