What's the most unconventional thing you've heard of someone try to do to save money on their taxes?

If any of these things happened in 2026, then you need to update your W-4:
• You got married or divorced
• You started a second job
• Your spouse started or stopped working
• You had a child
• You started a side hustle
• You bought a home

Those changes affect how much federal (and state) tax comes out of your paycheck each pay period.

For example, if your withholding is still designated as a single person but you recently got married, you may end up giving the Treasury more money than you need to.

If you’re not sure whether your withholding needs updating, DM us, and we can help you review and adapt to your circumstances.

We all get excited about a refund becuase it feels like “extra money.”

But sometimes a big refund actually means you paid more in taxes than you needed to throughout the year.

Say you got a $3,000 refund because too much in taxes was being given to the IRS. But could that $250 per month have been available to you during the year instead?

If your withholding could be adjusted, would you rather…
A) Get a larger refund at tax time
B) Have more money available in each paycheck
C) Aim for as close to break-even as possible

As AI becomes part of almost everything we do, human connection actually matters more.

No matter how smart technology gets, people still remember:
• Whether you listened to their specific problem
• If they felt understood when things got complicated
• Whether they could trust your judgment when it mattered

The companies that stand out over the next few years will be the ones that emphasize this human connection.

Yes, you can get a refund on a tariff you already paid BUT only if you have legal standing with Customs.

In trade, it doesn’t matter who paid the bill; it matters who is listed as the Importer of Record (IOR). To see if you’re eligible for a recovery, check your Entry Summary (CBP 7501):
• Your EIN is listed: You own the claim and can pursue the refund directly.
• A Broker or Carrier (UPS/FedEx) is listed: They hold the legal standing. You must coordinate through them to access the funds.

Not sure if your entries are still open for a claim? Send me a DM and I can help you figure out if your refund window is still open.

Who would have thought there was still IRS tax refund money to be claimed from the COVID era?
Or, in some cases, an abatement (aka a fee reduction or elimination).

But as with most things, there are specifics to qualification. Find out how to apply by reading the article (or let us help with that).

You have two main options: the standard mileage method or the actual expense method.

The 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗴𝗲 method is usually simpler. You track your business miles, then multiply them by the IRS mileage rate.

The 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲 method takes more recordkeeping. You track costs like gas, insurance, repairs, and maintenance, then deduct the business-use percentage.

So if 75% of your vehicle use is for business, you may be able to deduct 75% of your eligible vehicle expenses.

The important thing here: 𝘉𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴.

And if you own the car, your first-year choice can affect what methods are available later.

If you're tracking miles in your business, tell us which method you prefer and why in the comments below.

Cash flow gaps happen to the best of us. Aside from a bank loan, what’s the most creative way you’ve ever bridged a financial gap?

Let’s share some ideas for the community.

For 2026, the mileage rate is 𝟳𝟮.𝟱 𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲. So if you drove 12,000 business miles, that’s an $8,700 deduction.

But to claim it, you have to keep a log that proves it. Your log must include:
• Date of the trip
• Where you went
• Business purpose
• Miles driven

And make sure you track this as you go rather than trying to rebuild it later.

Also worth knowing:
• Commuting from home to your regular office isn’t deductible…
• Driving between work locations or to client meetings is!
