TAX
BRIEFS
The tax laws, the administra
tion of those laws, and the filing
of tax returns get more com
plicated each year. If you are
"just aware" as opposed to being
"fully educated" on a given tax
item, that may be sufficient. Your
tax advisor can fill in all the little
"niceties." With that in mind,
here ore just a few "awares."
? Households where both
spouses work may find
themselves shelling out addi
tional taxes at filing time unless
they make adjustments to their
withholdings. Consider reducing
your claimed exemptions to 0.
and If that doesn't produce
enough withholding, give your
employer a letter of approval to
withhold additional amounts.
? The IRS has discovered that a
great many individuals are hav
ing accountants prepare their tax
returns and, therefore, ore using
only the mailing labels from the
forms and instructions mailed to
them each year. Henceforth, cer
tain individuals will be receiving
only a mailing label from the IRS.
? If you are a "responsible per
son" in o corporation, you can be
liable for 100% of the FICA and
federal income taxes which are
withheld from employees but not
deposited with the government.
? Some tax exempt bond
holders may be denied interest
expense deductions. If the IRS
feels that you have borrowed
money to purchase another in
vestment rather than cashing in
tax-free bonds, you may be
denied an interest expense
deduction.
? Some alimony payments may
not be deductible. Some states
have laws that specify alimony Is
no longer payable If the recipient
get* remarried. H you reside In
such a state and continue to pay
unnecessary alimony, your
deduction will be lost. The reci
pient, however, will still be taxed
on the fund* as income.
