    Changes for 2008

    Tax Freebie - On Capital Gains

    Tax break available to couples with $65,100 or less in taxable income and singles with $32,550 or less. Those who sell securities held more than a year are exempt from capital gains tax in 2008 throught 2010. The freebie - even better than the 5 percent tax such filers paid last year - seems tailor - made for retirees with lower incomes who have stocks and bonds to sell. But beware - "Only gains within the income limits qualify for zero tax."

    Here's how it works. Say you're single and (after deductions and personal exemptions) have $22,000 in ordinary income such as from wages and interest. You'd pay no tax on up to $10,550 in capital gains. But gains that push taxable income over $32,550 would be taxed at 15 percent.       Return to Table of Contents.

    Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act

    Taxpayers who had a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of sale, mortgage loan modifciation or a short-sale may qualify for the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act which started in tax year 2007. In tax law, the amount of forgiven debt is typically treated as income and is taxed. But to help people who are affected by the mortgage crisis, Congress excluded homeowners whose mortgage debt was forgiven in years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Keep records of the foreclosure/sale, and statements of the amount that the bank wrote off.

    • Single or Married filing separately- $5,450 (up $100)

    • Certain state or local real estate taxes you paid, and
    • A net disaster loss attributable to a federally declared disaster. See the 1040 Instructions for line 39c on page 34.

    Exemptions Increase in 2008

    • Single individuals - $156,400
    • Married filing separately - $117,300
    • Heads of Households - $195,500
    • Married filing jointly or qualifying widow(er)s - $234,600

    Mileage Deduction Rates for 2008

    The standard mileage deduction rates for business use of your vehicle in tax year 2008 have increased. The cost of maintaining a car as well as the cost of gasoline reflects this increase. The following are the standard mileage deduction rates for tax year 2008:

    Changes for 2007

    Certain Taxpayers May Now File Their Employment Taxes Annually

    File Just One, Consider It Done!
    To reduce burden for certain small business taxpayers, the IRS has changed their employment tax filing requirement from quarterly to annually. If you have been filing Forms 941 and believe your yearly employment taxes will be $1,000 or less in this calendar year (average annual wages of $4,000 or less), and have not received notification of your eligibility by mail by mid-February, please call us by April 1st on (800) 829-4933, and select option 2. If we hear from you by April 1, we may be able to change your filing requirement to Form 944, Employer's Annual Federal Tax Return, rather than Form 941, Employer�s Quarterly Federal Tax Return. If you contact us after April 1, you will remain a Form 941 filer for this calendar year. If you are starting a new business you should contact as soon as possible to determine if you are eligible.
    Here are some frequently asked questions and answers about the Form 944 program:
    When will I file Form 944?
    This return will be due once a year, on January 31, after the end of the tax year.     Return to Table of Contents.

    Expired Tax Benefits

    Qualified electric vehicle credit. You cannot claim this credit for any vehicle you placed in service after 2006.

    Mortgage Insurance Premiums Treated as Home Mortgage Interest

    Premiums that you pay or accrue for "qualified mortgage insurance" during 2007 in connection with home acquisition debt on your qualified home are deductible as home mortgage interest. The deduction is only if you took out a new mortgage or refinanced in 2007. The amount you can deduct is reduced by 10% (.10) for every $1,000 ($500 if your filing status is married filing separately) by which your adjusted gross income exceeds $100,000 ($50,000 if your filing status is married filing separately). It is phased out completely if your adjusted gross income is more than $109,000 ($54,500 if married filing separately).
    Don't confuse this with homeowner's insurance to protect against fire or theft. Instead, this is insurance that protects a lender againist financial loss if a homeowner defaults on mortgage payments and the house has to be sold at foreclosure.
    Schedule A (Form 1040) You can deduct mortgage insurance premiums you paid or accrued during 2007 on Line 13 of the 2007 Schedule A 1040.

    Alternative Minimum Tax

    Five 2008 GM Vehicles Certified As Qualified Hybrids

    WASHINGTON - The Internal Revenue Service has acknowledged the certification by General Motors Corp. that five of its Model Year 2008 vehicles meet the requirements of the Alternative Motor Vehicle Credit as qualified hybrid motor vehicles.

    The credit amount for the certified 2008 model year hybrid vehicles are:
    • Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid 2008 (2WD and 4WD)$2,200.00

For the fourth and fifth calendar quarters, taxpayers may claim 25 percent of the credit. No credit is allowed after the fifth quarter.

    Credit for federal telephone excise tax paid - for tax year 2006 only

        If you were billed after Fedruary 28, 2003, and before August 1, 2006, for the federal telephone excise tax on long distance or bundled service, you may be able to request a credit for the tax paid. You had bundled service if your local and long distance service was provided under a plan that does not separetely state the charge for local service.
        You can request the standard amount or the actual amount you paid. The standard amount depends on the number of exemptions you claimed. If the number of exemptions you claimed is 1 then the standard amount is $30, (2 exemptions is $40), (3 exemptions is $50) and (4 or more is $60). This amount is entered on line 71, form 1040.
        In all cases the most you can claim is $60 unless you claim the actual amount. To claim the actual amount you need to complete form 8913 and add up the tax as it appears on your phone bills from Feb. 28, 2003 to July 31, 2006 and claim that for a credit.
        The reason for this credit is that the federal excise tax has been a charge on your phone bill for years. The excise tax was assessed based on how far and how long the call was. When phone companies began to offer flat fee phone service, challenges to the excise tax ended up in federal courts in several districts of the country. The argument was that flat fee/rate phone service had nothing to do with the distance and the length of the phone call. Therefore, the excise tax should not be assessed.
        Last of all this is a refundable credit. No matter how your tax return works out you get the money. If you get a refund, you get a larger refund. If you owe tax the credit reduces the amount you owe. If your not required to file a return you should file to get the credit. This is a one time credit for 2006 only.
        Return to Table of Contents.

    Education Credit

    If you (or your dependent) paid qualified expenses in 2009 for yourself, your spouse or your dependent to attend an eligible educational institution, you may be able to take an education credit. See Form 8863 for details. However, you cannot take an education credit if any of the following apply.

    • You are claimed as a dependent on someone's (such as your parents's) 2009 tax return.
    • Your filing status is married filing separately.
    • The amount on Form 1040, line 37, (AGI) is $57,000 or more ($114,000 or more if married filing jointly).
    • You (or your spouse) were a nonresident alien for any part of 2009 unless your filing status is married filing jointly.
    • You are taking a deduction for tuition and fees on Form 1040, line 27, for the same student.
    What expenses qualify for the Hope and Lifetime Learning Credit.
    • Tuition and fees required for enrollment.
    • The cost of books, supplies, equipment, and student activity fees may be included only if it must be paid to the educational institution as a condition of enrollment.
    • Prepaid expenses. If in 2009 you pay qualified tuition and related expenses for an academic period that begins in the first three months of 2010, you can include the prepayment in figuring your 2009 credit.

    The maximum Hope credit, available for the first two years of post-secondary education, is $1,800.

    Efile

        One benefit of efile is that your refund will arrive in as little as 11 days.  Some disadvantages of using efile software from commercial or online providers is that you could be sending some very personal information to tax software providers who in turn could be selling or sharing this information to credit card companys or others.  We have used these programs and they want you to go online to update their program. Some of the forms that require updating are very simple ones, like 1040-ES, that haven't changed at all over the years. Which I find suspicious. They also ask for your address and last of all your credit card number to pay for Free Efiling. Then they send the money back to you! After you get your refund, the end result is "Free".   In our current business climate Secure really doesn't have meaning any more.

    We are registered with the IRS to offer Efile. If we find a propram that IRS has developed to Efile, we may be able to offer this service to our clients. That is if and when the IRS develops a program of their own for efiling. Find out if you are eligible for Free Efile . This IRS site lists Efile providers who will efile individual returns for Free. Tax Act is listed with the IRS as a Free Efile   provider.

    ¶     The Internal Revenue Website advertises Free Efile. However they only list free providers so you have to leave their site to efile. We suspect these so called secure sites are Phishing for information. Your personal information is already on the Internet though. Most credit card companys have already sold your information to other Companies. Nothing is really for Free!        Return to Top

    Child Credit

    The child tax credit for tax year 2009 is $1000 for each qualifying child who is under age 17 at the end of 2009. To claim this credit the child must be claimed as a dependent. The credit is limited or eliminated if your modified adjusted gross income is above a threshold amount for your filing status. The phase out for filing status single is $75,000 and married filing joint is $110,000. To figure out the exact credit you must complete the 'Child Tax Credit Worksheet". If you have three or more qualifing children, you may be able to qualify for an additional child tax credit by filing Form 8812.     Return to Table of Contents.

    • You may not have more than $2,950 in investment income.

    Earned Income Credit for 2008

    If your income is less than $38,646 ($41,646 if married filing joint) and you have a dependent child or if your income is below $15,880 and you do not have a dependent you may be able to claim this credit. The qualifying child must have lived with you in the US for more than 6 months in 2008. You must file a joint return if married to claim this credit. If you lived apart from your spouse for the last half of the year, you may be able to claim the credit as a head of household.

    You will be eligible to claim this credit if the following apply for year 2008:
    • You do not have a qualifying child and earn less than ($12,880 single, head of household) or $15,880 and are married and filing jointly.
    • You have one qualifying child and you earn less than ($33,950 single, head of household) or $36,950 if filing jointly.
    • If you have two or more qualifying children and earn less than $38,646 single or $41,646 if married filing jointly.
    • In addition, your maximum investment income must be less than $2,950 (Up $50) to take this credit.

    For 2008 the maximum earned income tax credit for low and moderate income workers and working families with two or more children is $4,824, up from $4,716. The income limit for the credit for joint return filers with two or more children is $41,646, up from $39,783.

    The Internal Revenue Service says that about one-quarter of those who qualify don't claim the credit. Some people miss it because they don't earn enough to be required to file a tax return. You can't claim the credit unless you file a retun. Others may think it is available only to those with children. The credit is considerably more valuable for parents, but childless workers can claim it too. The maximum credit for those with no children is $438.



    Retirement Savings Credit

    New credit started in tax year 2002. This is a very big credit (up to $1000) for those who qualify. You may be able to take this credit if you, or your spouse if filing jointly, made:
    • Contributions to a traditional or Roth IRA.
    • Elective deferrals to a 401(k), 403(b), or 457 plan.
    • Voluntary contributions to a 501(c)(18) plan.
    However, you cannot take the credit if any of the following apply.
    • Your adjusted gross income is more than $26,500 ($39,750 if head of household; $53,000 if married filing jointly).
    • You were under age 18 at the end of the tax year.
    • You are claimed as a dependent on someone's (such as your parent's) tax return.
    • You were enrolled as a full-time student for any 5 months of the tax year.
    For more details see Form 8880.

    Pensions and Annuities

    If you received a distribution from your pension or annuity you should receive a Form 1099-R.
    Your payments are fully taxable if either of the following applies.

    • You did not contribute to the cost of your pension or annuity or
    • You got your entire cost back tax free.
    If Form 1099-R does not show the taxable amount, you must use the General Rule to figure the taxable part (see Pub. 939). But if your annuity starting date was after July 1, 1986 you may have to use the Simplified Method to figure the taxable part.
    If your Form 1099-R shows a taxable amount, you may report that amount on line 16b. But you may be able to report a lower taxable amount by using the General Rule or the Simplified Method. See Pub. 575 or Pub. 721 for more details.     Return to Table of Contents.

    Social Security Tax

    For taxpayers that are self-employed, their Social Security tax is figured on Schedule SE. This amount is transferred to Form 1040, line 53. Any Social Security tax due is combined with any Federal tax due and paid with their 1040 tax return.

    Tax Year 2010

    Repeal of the Estate Tax. If congress does not act this could be a very taxing year to die. Currently estates less than $1,000,000 are not subject to tax. That all changes in tax year 2010.     Return to Contents.
