2020 Year-End Planning – Additional Items to Note

ABD & RWH - Bench Cropped


By Bobby Hoffman


Additional tax planning considerations for year-end 2020:

  • IRS “Phishing” Scams: As was noted in last year’s Year-End Tax Letter, the IRS continues to battle cons taking advantage of taxpayers. They stress that the IRS does not solicit taxpayer information via e-mail or phone calls and that any such communication received from the “IRS” requesting personal information should be deleted immediately and reported. Identity theft is a growing problem and we encourage clients to take a proactive approach in protecting themselves. The IRS has just announced that beginning in mid-January of 2021, any taxpayer will be allowed to get a taxpayer personal identification number by going to this link: https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pinPreviously, only taxpayers in selected states could apply.
  • Audits: As the Federal government continues to struggle financially, the automatic notices for audits and penalties are sent out at a staggering rate. Please let us know if you receive any notice from the IRS as we are prepared to help you if you have any issues.
