💡 Tax Tip of the Week

Contributed to an IRA?

You have until the April filing deadline to make a prior‑year Traditional IRA contribution — up to $7,000 ($8,000 if 50+) — and it may lower this year's tax bill. Ask us if you qualify for the deduction.

Hi Jordan! I'm working on your 2024 return. Did you pay mortgage interest this year? If so, upload your Form 1098 and I can add the deduction. 🙂
Yes! Just uploaded it to my documents. Thank you!
Perfect, I see it — this should bump your refund up nicely. I'll have your draft ready to review shortly.
Amazing, appreciate you!
