The IRS has launched a new “Report Fraud” webpage to simplify confidential reporting of suspected tax fraud or scams. It consolidates multiple IRS fraud-reporting options into a single location, allowing taxpayers to report suspected scams, tax evasion or other tax-related misconduct in one place. This is the initial phase; the IRS plans to further streamline fraud reporting by reducing the number of forms, automating processes and adopting modern case‑management tools. We’re here if you have questions. Call us at (401) 941-0900.

F**A taxes on W-2 wages are split equally between employee and employer. For self-employment income, you pay both halves, but the “employer” half is deductible. If you own and work in a business structured as a partnership, the income passing through to you for income tax purposes generally is also subject to self-employment taxes, even if it isn’t distributed to you. If your income exceeds certain levels, you also could be subject to the 0.9% additional Medicare tax. Call us at (401) 941-0900 to review your situation.

Fringe benefits offer multiple business advantages. They can boost morale, attract and retain top talent, and qualify for potential tax breaks. That’s why it’s smart to review which ones you sponsor and what you may be missing. Of course, you don’t want to spend time and resources sponsoring benefits your employees don’t value. And you must follow specific rules and documentation requirements to be eligible for tax-advantaged treatment. Contact us at (401) 941-0900 for help choosing the right fringe benefits for your business and managing the tax impact.

Trying to catch up? Employees age 50 and older are allowed to make extra, “catch-up” contributions to their 401(k) and similar plans. In 2026, you can generally contribute an additional $8,000, for an annual maximum of $32,500. And, if you turn age 60, 61, 62 or 63 this year, you can contribute up to $35,750! However, there’s a catch. Recent tax law changes require certain high earners to invest catch-up contributions in a post-tax Roth account, such as a Roth 401(k). This may require additional planning. Call us at {Phone%} to discuss how to reach your retirement savings goals.

Did you know you can amend your tax return if you need to revise information after you filed it? Amended returns let taxpayers fix errors or omissions — such as income, deductions, credits or filing status — and make certain late elections. They can also be used to address tax law changes, claim losses and credit carrybacks, and more. You can e-file up to three amended returns per tax year. Usually, you have up to three years from the original filing deadline or two years from when you paid the tax, whichever is later, to claim a refund. But the rules can be complex. Contact us at (401) 941-0900 for guidance.

If you own foreign assets and fail to properly address them in your estate plan, unexpected tax outcomes can result. For example, if you’re a U.S. citizen, your worldwide assets are potentially subject to federal gift and estate taxes, regardless of where you live or where the assets are located. So, if you own assets in other countries and the assets are subject to estate, inheritance or other death taxes in those countries, there’s a risk of double taxation. Call us at (401) 941-0900 to learn more about how to properly account for foreign assets in your estate plan.

Small business owners: Tax credits can reduce your tax bill dollar for dollar. But using them isn’t always straightforward. Many business credits fall under the general business credit (GBC), which limits how much you can claim each year and governs how unused credits are carried back or forward. Missteps can mean lost or delayed tax benefits. We help small businesses identify eligible credits, apply the GBC rules correctly and optimize their tax outcomes over time. Contact us at (401) 941-0900 to see whether you’re making the most of the credits available to you.

You’ll receive a CP24 notice if the IRS reviews your tax return and determines you’re due a refund that differs from what you originally claimed. This often happens because the IRS corrected a math error, applied a payment or credit differently, or offset a refund to pay another tax liability. The notice explains what changed and how the refund was calculated. Generally, no response is required if you agree with the adjustment; your adjusted refund will be issued automatically. But if you disagree or don’t understand the change, it’s important to review the notice carefully and respond by the deadline. We can help you determine whether the IRS adjustment is correct and advise on next steps. Call us at (401) 941-0900.

The stepped-up basis rules can reduce capital gains tax for family members who inherit your assets. Under these rules, when your loved one inherits an asset, its tax basis is “stepped up” to its fair market value at the time of your death. If the heir later sells the asset, he or she will owe capital gains tax only on any appreciation after your date of death, rather than on the entire gain since you acquired it. Investment accounts, business interests, real estate and personal property are among the assets affected by the stepped-up basis rules. Call us at (401) 941-0900 for details.

When you’re busy running a business, it’s easy to overlook or dismiss the warning signs of financial distress. Rising employee turnover can signal internal strain. Cash flow issues may indicate slow collections or weak working capital practices. And sudden external shifts — such as interest rate volatility, cost increases or supply chain disruptions — can take a toll on otherwise healthy businesses. Supplementing your company’s year-end financial statements with interim reports or targeted agreed-upon procedures can help you spot problems early and take prompt corrective action. Contact us at (401) 941-0900 to learn more.

Starting in 2026, the tax rules for the personal casualty loss deduction are changing. While the deduction remains limited mainly to disaster-related losses, eligibility is expanding beyond federally declared disasters to include certain state-declared disasters. Because the rules are complicated and additional limits apply, review your situation with us. We can help determine whether you’re eligible for a casualty loss deduction. Contact us at (401) 941-0900.
