Tax Season isn't the best time to do major tax planning.
You may need to make some plans to reduce future taxes. Your professional tax adviser will be able to devote more time and attention for more comprehensive planning after the rush of tax season.
You may also discover that you should have done more planning last year. OUCH!
Remember tax avoidance is legal, tax evasion is not! As a general rule, actions taken to reduce taxes during the year are more apt to be tax avoidance. Those same steps taken after the year-end may be tax evasion.
Call your professional tax adviser before you undertake transactions that could have tax consequences.
My practice is designed to encourage clients to prevent problems by calling me ahead of time. It can be very expensive cleaning up the messes later, when it is too late. Nobody likes that!
Tax planning is an investment - not an expense!
