While summer is a time for fun, it\u2019s never the wrong time to thinking about taxes\u2014and some of those summer activities could have an impact. Here are a few summertime activities and tips you clients should consider for filing season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marriage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wedding season<\/a> is upon us, and newlyweds can make their tax filing easier by taking two simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Report any name change to the Social Security Administration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Notify the United States Postal Service, employers, and the\u00a0IRS of any address change. To officially change their mailing address with the IRS, taxpayers must compete and submit\u00a0Form 8822<\/a>, Change of Address<\/em>. See page 2 of the form for detailed instructions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Summer camp<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If a taxpayer is sending a child to summer camp, the cost may count toward the\u00a0Child and Dependent Care Credit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Business travel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Kids may have the summer off, but parents generally don’t\u2014and business travel happens year-round. Tax deductions are available for certain people who travel away from their home\u00a0or\u00a0main place of work\u00a0for business reasons. Whether a business traveler is away for a few nights or all summer long, it\u2019s important for them to remember the tax rules related to\u00a0business travel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Part-time work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    While summertime and part-time workers may not earn enough to owe federal income tax, they should file a tax return to get any refund they may be owed. Part-time and seasonal workers can visit IRS.gov to learn more about\u00a0who should file a tax return<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Some taxpayers earn summer income with a side hustle or doing gig work<\/a>. They can visit the\u00a0Gig Economy Tax Center<\/a>\u00a0at IRS.gov to learn how participating in the gig economy can affect their taxes. If taxpayers are paid through payment apps for goods and services during the year, they may receive Form 1099-K<\/a> for those transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Home improvements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The IRS has information to help taxpayers take advantage of potential tax benefits for home improvements. If taxpayers make qualified energy efficient improvements<\/a> to their home after Jan. 1, 2023, they may qualify for a tax credit up to $3,200. They can claim the credit for improvements made through 2032.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These types of improvements include\u00a0Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credits<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>for water heaters, exterior windows and doors, and heating and air conditioning installations.\u00a0Residential Clean Energy Credits<\/a>\u00a0are available for taxpayers who install solar water heaters, fuel cells and battery storage or solar, wind and geothermal power generation. Taxpayers can visit the\u00a0Home Energy Tax Credits<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>page on IRS.gov to learn more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
