Taxpayers who itemize their deductions can choose between deducting state income tax or state sales tax on their Schedule A form. If you live in a state without income taxes, the sales tax deduction is a great option. You can use the IRS table for an easy calculation but remember to include sales tax on major purchases, like a car or boat. Keep in mind that the federal deduction for state and local taxes is capped at $10,000 in total.

Any year-end bonus you receive from your employer is added to your wages, tips, and other compensation and taxed at your federal income tax rate for the year. For instance, if you're a single filer earning $75,000 in regular wages and a $10,000 bonus in 2024, you'd owe federal income tax as follows: 10% on the first $11,600 ($1,160), 12% on the next $35,550 ($4,266), and 22% on the remaining $37,850 ($8,327), totaling $13,753. You'll also owe Social Security (6.2%), Medicare (1.45%), and any applicable state or local taxes.

If you itemize deductions, you can deduct medical expenses exceeding 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. This includes health insurance deductibles, co-payments, and out-of-pocket medical costs, along with often-overlooked expenses like travel-related housing for medical care, contact lens supplies, breathing machines, walkers, crutches, and scooters. Long-term care insurance premiums are also deductible as a medical expense, with limits based on your age. Keeping detailed records of these expenses can help you maximize your deductions and lower your tax bill.

Taxpayers with non-wage income—such as self-employment earnings, unemployment benefits, annuities, or income from digital assets—may need to make estimated or additional payments. Wage earners can use the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator to check if an extra payment is necessary to avoid surprises when filing their tax return. Staying proactive can help you manage your tax liability effectively and avoid unexpected bills.

For the 2024 tax year, taxpayers must report all digital asset-related income on their federal income tax return, just as in previous years. Digital assets include property stored electronically, such as cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, convertible virtual currencies, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). If you had digital asset transactions, keep detailed records of purchases, receipts, sales, exchanges, or other dispositions. Be sure to note the fair market value in U.S. dollars for any digital assets received as income or payment in a trade or business. For a smooth tax-filing process, contact Tax@MyTaxFiler.com #digitalassets #cryptocurrency #NFTs #taxfilingtips #taxpreparation

Self-employment comes with great tax benefits, including the mileage deduction—perfect for gig workers like delivery drivers. You can deduct miles driven for business purposes, such as client meetings, trips to secondary work sites, or supply errands. However, commuting from home to your main business location isn’t deductible. If you have a home office as your principal place of business, you can deduct mileage for business-related travel to and from home.
