The IRS has issued transitional guidance to auto lenders required to report certain vehicle loan interest for 2025. Under the tax legislation signed into law in July, interest on qualified passenger vehicle loans originated after Dec. 31, 2024, generally is deductible up to $10,000. Lenders must provide eligible taxpayers with the appropriate information to claim the deduction on their 2025 tax returns. According to the guidance, the IRS will consider that lenders have met their reporting obligations for interest received on a qualified vehicle loan in 2025 if they make statements available to buyers indicating the total amount of interest received. To learn more about the new vehicle loan interest deduction, contact us at (308) 754-4557.

Did you celebrate your 73rd birthday in 2025? If you have money in an IRA, 401(k), SEP or SIMPLE plan, you must take your first required minimum distribution (RMD) by Dec. 31 (or, potentially, by April 1, 2026). RMDs are annual withdrawals of specified amounts based on your age and the account’s value at the end of the last tax year. For more information about managing retirement income, contact us at (308) 754-4557.

A sound succession plan is a must for every business owner. But even the best-laid strategies can go awry. In fact, it’s not unusual for changing circumstances to affect the feasibility of a succession plan. We’d be happy to review the strengths and potential weaknesses of yours. And if you don’t have a succession plan yet, we can help you create one. Please contact us at (308) 754-4557.

A qualified personal residence trust (QPRT) allows you to give your home to your children today while enjoying the right to live there for a set number of years. The home is removed from your taxable estate at a reduced value for gift tax purposes (provided you survive the trust’s term). At the end of the term, your beneficiaries own the home. You may continue to live there beyond the end of the term if the trustees or owners agree and you pay fair market rent. Contact us at (308) 754-4557 with questions about QPRTs or other estate planning ideas for reducing taxes.

The IRS has announced its annual inflation-adjusted income tax brackets and other amounts. For 2026, the highest rate (37%) will apply to taxable income over $640,600 for singles and heads of households ($768,700 for married couples filing jointly and $384,350 for married taxpayers filing separately). The standard deduction is increasing to $16,100 for singles and married taxpayers filing separately ($32,200 for married couples filing jointly and $24,150 for heads of households). Single filers age 65 or older will be eligible to take an additional deduction of $2,050 ($1,650 per spouse for married filers). Alternative minimum tax exemptions and adoption credits are among the other items that have been adjusted for 2026. Contact us at (308) 754-4557 if you have questions about the impact of inflation adjustments on your tax situation.

Accurate financial records are essential for your company’s success. However, many small business owners struggle with accounting and bookkeeping tasks. You can count on us to handle these chores for you. Call us at (308) 754-4557 to schedule a consultation.

With the standard deduction permanently doubled, far fewer taxpayers itemize deductions. That means many people won’t be able to deduct their 2025 charitable gifts. But starting with cash donations made in 2026, nonitemizers can claim a deduction up to the applicable limit. However, itemizers will face a new adjusted gross income floor on their charitable deductions. If your giving typically exceeds these limits but not your standard deduction, bunching donations into alternating years may offer tax savings. Contact us at (308) 754-4557 to learn more. A proactive review now can help you plan wisely.

11/17/2025

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act permanently increases the federal gift and estate tax exemption amount to $15 million ($30 million for married couples) beginning in 2026. The amount will continue to be adjusted annually for inflation. The estate tax rate remains at 40%, and the generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax exemption will match the increased estate and gift tax exemption. If your estate exceeds, or is expected to exceed, the exemption amount, implement planning techniques today that can help you reduce or avoid gift and estate taxes in the future. Contact us at (308) 754-4557 for assistance.

11/14/2025

Taxpayers involved in a dispute with the IRS may want to consider using one of the IRS’s alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mediation programs. These programs can help taxpayers efficiently resolve tax issues with the IRS. Taxpayers for whom mediation can be a good option include those who don’t have many disputed issues or who’re seeking an early resolution to issues under audit. Mediation doesn’t replace the audit or collection processes. The IRS’s Independent Office of Appeals has five ADR programs: Fast Track Settlement, Fast Track Mediation Collection, Post Appeals Mediation, the Rapid Appeals Process and Early Referral. Call us at (308) 754-4557 for details if you have a tax dispute with the IRS.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) brings major tax savings and planning opportunities for many businesses. Here are four highlights: 1) 100% first-year bonus depreciation for qualified new and used assets and production property, 2) an enhanced research and experimentation deduction, 3) expanded gain exclusions for qualified small business stock. 4) permanent 20% qualified business income deduction for pass-through businesses and sole proprietorships. Contact us at (308) 754-4557 to review your tax strategies and lock in benefits under the OBBBA.

Are you suffering from “retirement sprawl?” You might be if you’ve switched jobs several times and left 401(k) plan accounts behind. You may even have a few traditional or Roth IRAs out there. Over time, having many accounts can make managing and tracking retirement investments increasingly difficult. So it’s time to round up those accounts and consolidate them! Contact us at (308) 754-4557 for advice on avoiding negative tax consequences in the process.
