Vise Financial

Vise Financial Vise Financial is a local CPA firm committed to our community. As a CPA born and raised in the Kansas City area, I feel a strong connection to this city.

I take deep pride in helping the individuals and businesses of this town succeed. I’m Justin Vise and after spending 20 years working at some of the largest firms in town, I decided to set out on my own for two primary reasons. First and foremost is my commitment to my family. With a wife and two beautiful little girls I adore, I made the personal decision to be more available for the people I love. Second was to provide the value and service that the citizens of this great city deserve. I created this firm with the sole purpose of helping business leaders and individuals be more confident in their CPA and take some of the worry and uncertainty about financial matters out of their already stressful lives. I have a commitment to reliability, integrity, and proactive communication that is unrivaled in the industry. I assure you that I will exceed your expectations.

The IRS is reminding taxpayers of new deductions available this tax season. If you’re 65 or older, you potentially can claim an additional $6,000 deduction. Depending on your occupation, you may be able to deduct up to $25,000 in qualified tips. You may also be able to deduct up to $12,500 in qualified overtime ($25,000 if you’re married and file jointly). If you took out a vehicle loan in 2025, you possibly can deduct up to $10,000 in interest paid. But all these breaks are subject to additional rules, and they phase out when income exceeds applicable limits. If you’re eligible, you can claim these deductions whether you itemize or take the standard deduction. Contact us at with questions.

Grantor-retained annuity trusts (GRATs) and grantor-retained unitrusts (GRUTs) allow you to give assets to your children today while you receive payments back from the trust for a specified term. And, provided you survive the trust’s term, you’ll remove the assets from your taxable estate at a reduced value for gift tax purposes. At the end of the term, the principal may pass to the beneficiaries or remain in the trust. Contact us at for additional details.

Do you have an IRS Individual Online Account? If not, the IRS is encouraging you to create one. Taxpayers with an account can securely access their tax information online. Specifically, you can view your balance, make payments, set up payment plans, access tax records and review prior notices without waiting on hold or mailing forms. Plus, the account can help protect you from identity theft and fraud. Having an account can also help reduce errors and surprises by allowing you to monitor activity in real time and respond quickly if issues arise. See something in your account that concerns you? Call us at to discuss it.

Identifying discrepancies early can help you catch errors and shrinkage before they escalate.

Business owners: 100% bonus depreciation is back. It had been scheduled to drop to 40% for 2025 and 20% for 2026 and to disappear for 2027. Also, the Sec. 179 expensing limit has doubled for 2025 and is indexed for inflation going forward. Eligible assets for both breaks generally include machinery, equipment, computers, furniture and certain qualified improvements to nonresidential real estate. These tax law changes could make a meaningful difference on your 2025 return and in your 2026 planning. Contact us at to learn more.

If you expect to owe tax when you file your return and don’t think you’ll be able to pay the entire amount due, it may be tempting to put off filing. But remember, filing for an extension doesn’t extend your payment deadline. So consider filing on time and paying what you can. If you pay at least part of what you owe on time, you can reduce the interest and late payment penalty you’ll owe because your unpaid balance after the April 15 deadline will be lower. Then set up a payment plan with the IRS. Both short-term and long-term plans are available. Contact us at to get your return filed on time.

The IRS has published new FAQs on Executive Order 14247, which calls for eliminating paper checks to and from the IRS. This change is to reduce fraud, enhance security, lower costs and speed up processing. The IRS is encouraging taxpayers to provide banking information on their 2025 tax returns so it can issue refunds via direct deposit. For taxpayers without a bank account, options such as prepaid debit cards, digital wallets or limited exceptions to the “no paper checks” rule are available. If you owe tax, electronic payment methods are preferred, but the IRS will continue to accept mailed paper checks and money orders for now. Contact us at if you have any questions or concerns.

The decision to itemize deductions or claim the standard deduction can have a big impact on your tax bill. With a higher standard deduction and itemized deductions more limited, many taxpayers who once benefited from itemizing have been better off taking the standard deduction. But the recent quadrupling of the deduction limit for state and local taxes could make itemizing worthwhile again for some. Not sure which is better for you? We can help. Call us at .

Beginning in 2025, businesses can once again deduct domestic research and experimental (R&E) expenses in the year they’re incurred, rather than amortizing them over five years. In addition, “small businesses” can file amended returns to claim the deduction retroactively for 2022 through 2024. Regardless of size, businesses that incurred domestic R&E expenses in 2022 through 2024 can elect to accelerate the remaining deductions for those expenditures over a one- or two-year period. If your business has incurred domestic R&E expenses in any of these years, call us at to discuss how these changes can help boost your cash flow.
