The garden harvests are rolling in, fresh vegetables are everywhere and it\u2019s really, really great. Time to fill up your oil tanks before the price change, and at least know where those snow tires are in the back of the garage. It\u2019s also time for tax planning. There are so many things in the tax code that have time limitations. It\u2019s really time to check in with yourself if you want to actually participate in your bill with the IRS. Taxes can be very much within people\u2019s control, even though they don\u2019t feel that way. If you\u2019re<\/p><\/div><\/li>
<\/a><\/div>It\u2019s the End of the Road for Tax Procrastinators<\/a><\/span>by TaxDoctor<\/a> on September 2, 2026 at 10:58 pm <\/small>This last wave of tax filers are quite often the most productive people in our economy. Many are business owners, some with more than one business, or at least in some ways just have a lot going on, which means they usually add and not subtract from the tax base.

It\u2019s a vicious cycle. You wait to file because you are so busy getting ahead and just plain getting things done, then comes the fear<\/p><\/div><\/li>
<\/a><\/div>How to Avoid Capital Gains Taxes Still Seems to Mystify the Public<\/a><\/span>by TaxDoctor<\/a> on August 25, 2026 at 1:22 pm <\/small>When people are contemplating selling an asset like a house, an investment property, stock or a business asset, it\u2019s usually to make a profit or to raise cash. Sometimes, a house is sold in order to buy bigger (or smaller), to move to a different town to take a new job. In the case of stocks, it might be for the taking of profits, stopping further loses, or again to raise cash.\u00a0 One common thread among all of these decisions is that people generally think about them for some time before they act, as usually these are among the largest assets they have.

<\/a><\/div>Why Didn\u2019t My Tax Preparer Tell Me That?<\/a><\/span>by TaxDoctor<\/a> on August 19, 2026 at 2:47 pm <\/small>When you start tax planning with a new client, the first thing people often ask is why the accountant or CPA they are using doesn\u2019t think or act the way you do in discussing the hunt for possible tax savings. After all, the current CPA is smart, trustworthy, running a successful accounting business and well respected in the community. So, why are you telling them all these wonderful new tax savings ideas that their CPA has never mentioned? There are many explanations, but the simplest is how the accountants themselves view the job that they do. Often, accountants think that the profession of accounting in its simplest form is the job of telling the story of money that has already<\/p><\/div><\/li>
