A Little Turkey Talk

  

As we coast to the beginning of the holidays, we wanted to share a few things that will help you digest all that food.

Increased Taxes in the Future?

 

We are sure you are aware that there is much talk in the media about future tax rate hikes. This is a possibility but is still in the beginning phases. MANY proposals are being put out there, none are a done deal. So please be patient as we monitor the frequently changing proposals. 

We are doing our best to plan for the current year taxes and think forward to future planning (if only our crystal ball was working better!). 


ROTH IRA Conversion – This option may end Dec. 31st for the foreseeable future. If you are planning on considering making this conversion, please contact your financial advisor before 12/31/2021.


S- Corporation Companies:


Reimbursement – If you have paid for any business expenses with personal funds, please reimburse from practice prior to 12/31/2021 or contact our office to discuss best options, if cash is unavailable for reimbursement.


Health Insurance – Reminder to provide your payroll company total health insurance paid for 2021. This should be reported as 2% Shareholder Health Insurance. 

 

Please be on the lookout for your tax projection for the year. We are currently sending them out to you and would be happy to schedule a meeting to discuss them in more detail if you have any questions or concerns.  

Targeted EIDL Advance #1


The Targeted EIDL Advance provides funds of up to $10,000 to applicants

who:


  • Are in a low-income community. To help applicants determine if they are in a low-income community as defined in section 45D(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, a mapping tool (sbaeidl.policymap.com/app) is available. The business address must be in a low-income community to qualify so SBA encourages potential applicants to check the map to see if they meet the low-income community eligibility requirement before they apply; and
  • Can demonstrate more than 30% reduction in revenue during an eight-week period beginning on March 2, 2020, or later. If an applicant meets the low-income community criteria, they will be asked to provide gross monthly revenue (all forms of combined monthly earnings received, such as profits or salaries) to confirm the 30% reduction; and
  • Have 300 or fewer employees.


Business entities normally eligible for the EIDL program are eligible to apply.


All communication from SBA will be sent from an official government email account ending with @sba.gov. Please do not send sensitive information via email to any address that does not end with @sba.gov.


Supplemental materials:


Supplemental Targeted Advance #2

 

The Supplemental Targeted Advance provides a supplemental payment of $5,000 that does not have to be repaid. Even if you have previously received the original EIDL Advance in the full amount of $10,000, you may be eligible for the Supplemental Targeted Advance if you meet eligibility criteria. The combined amount of the Supplemental Targeted Advance ($5,000) with any previously received EIDL Advance or Targeted EIDL Advance ($10,000) will not exceed $15,000.


Completing the Targeted EIDL Advance application is a requirement to be considered for the Supplemental Targeted Advance. This is similar to the Targeted EIDL Advance #1 so you will see a repeat of the instructions.


Before applying, make sure your small business meets the following eligibility criteria:


  • Is located in a low-income community. Use this  mapping tool to see if your business is in a low-income community as defined in section 45D(e) of the Internal Revenue Code. The business address must be in a low-income community to qualify, so SBA encourages you to check the map before you apply; and
  • Can prove more than a 50% economic loss during an eight-week period beginning on March 2, 2020, or later, compared to the same period of the previous year. Applicants need to provide gross monthly revenue (all forms of combined monthly earnings received, such as profits or salaries) from January 2019 to the current month-to-date; and
  • Has 10 or fewer employees.


Supplemental Targeted Advances are available to sole proprietors, independent contractors, private nonprofit organizations, and others that usually qualify for the EIDL program and meet the above criteria.


Again, all application decisions or requests for additional information will be sent from an official government email account ending with @sba.gov. Do not send sensitive information via email to any address that does not end with @sba.gov.
