With a major tax overhaul likely to pass by year’s end, you can still use today’s rules to shrink your 2017 bill.
After much back and forth, it looks likely that a tax bill will pass by the end of the year.
In the meantime, you can still take advantage of current tax laws to lower your 2017 burden and better position yourself for what the future tax bill may bring.
A major tax reform feature is the elimination of most itemized deductions.
A bigger potential break can come from deducting your state and local taxes—a boon for residents of high-tax states like New Jersey, New York and California.
On top of ensuring you itemize and deduct state and local taxes, Certified Financial Planner Vid Ponnapalli suggests fattening your savings by pre-paying a few bills by December 31.
Similarly, you can frontload your generosity by making some of next year’s charitable contributions this year.
If you’re still within your company’s open enrollment period, sign up for a dependent flexible spending account, if one is offered and you have kids.
Other benefits you might eventually lose: tax-free education and tuition assistance and adoption assistance, as well as deductions for relocation expenses and transportation benefits.
If possible, consider putting off a payday till 2018: Side giggers and freelancers could delay sending out final invoices, and full timers might request any year-end bonuses be held for a bit.
For example, if you’re single and report a taxable income of $44,000, under current law, you fall into the 25-percent tax bracket.
