With the new Missouri Fuel Tax beginning October 01, 2021, there are specific requirements for record keeping that you will need to have to claim the refund for the additional tax. Keep ALL of you receipts for no less than 3 years. You will need to keep track of the following information:

The total gallons is subject to a refund of 2.5 cents per gallon. I have a spreadsheet available for your convenience. If you would like a copy (as Facebook will not allow me to post a file), please drop your email address below.

If you have used Turbo Tax in the past to file your tax returns for free, the company has just announced they will no longer be participating in the IRS's free file program. If you find yourself needing assistance, my office is affordable and can help you understand your tax situation. I am accepting new clients for the 2021 Tax Season.

Intuit, the company behind popular tax filing software TurboTax, announced Thursday that it will no longer participate in the IRS Free File program

I have received a lot of calls and messages regarding the Child Tax Credit for 2021. To ease any confusion, the Child Tax Credit in past years has been partially NON-refundable, partially REFUNDABLE. This year (so far for 2021 ONLY), the Child Tax Credit is a FULLY REFUNDABLE credit. For children under 6, the Credit is $3,600. If you chose to take the Advanced Child Tax Credit, you will receive $300 per month starting on or around July 15, 2021 until December 15, 2021. For children 6 and older, the credit is $3,000. If you chose the Advanced Child Tax Credit, you will receive $250.00 per month starting on or around July 15, 2021 until December 15, 2021. Now, here is the confusing part: to opt out or not! In past years, the child tax credit has only been refundable up to $1,400.00. The non-refundable portion is taken against any tax liability you have. Then the difference is refunded up to $1,400.00. If you don't necessarily need it right now, I would suggest to not take it! If you are newly divorced or share custody and filing of a dependent, if you are NOT eligible to claim your dependent in 2021, you potentially will owe ALL of the ADVANCED Child Tax Credit back to the IRS! This is not a FREE credit! For your convenience, when it goes live, below is the link you can opt out, update your information, and file a 0 return if you are not eligible to file a tax return.
