What are CPA - Tax Moms?

CPA Moms no 7 “CPA - Tax Moms” are trade names given to Accounting and Tax Professionals who chose to work in an “relaxed” environment.

This is a picture of Debbie. She is experienced with tax adoption credit. Two of grand children are adopted. She is the mother of five growth children.

Some "Mom" work from home, other work from personal offices. Debbie works from a relaxed office.

Not all are Moms, there are some Dads. We call them Mr. Tax Moms and CPA Dads.

Each Mom is independent. Once you start working with a Mom, you will keep the same “Mom” year after year regardless of where you move or relocate.

Being in a “relaxed” environment has many advantages. Lower overhead, faster response time, more availability, etc.

To be a member of the CPA or Tax Moms, the Tax Professional must ALWAYS be in good standing with their state licensing agency (if there is one), experienced, and must demonstrate a high level of ethics, professionalism and proficiency.

Tax Net Inc, the parent company, has developed marketing and on line systems to help qualified Tax

Professionals work from their “relaxed” environment and offer better service at a lower price to the consumer.

Since the “Moms” do taxes and accounting of all complexities, there is always a Mom available for every level of work. Since each Mom has a private 800 number, you are just a phone call away, regardless of where you live.

Tax Credits for Retirement Savings

Richard A. Chapo

It is a well-known fact that Americans are miserable failures when it comes to saving for retirement. Well, the government is offering tax credits to change this for some of us.

Tax Credits for Retirement Savings

Social security is going to be under siege as baby boomers hit retirements. Fortunately, many baby boomers have put away piles of cash in 401ks and IRAs. Regardless, most people fail to do all they can in this regard. In an attempt to motivate us taxpayers to save as much as we can for retirement, Uncle Sam is dangling tax credits before us like the proverbial carrot.

The tax credit in question is the Retirement Savings Contributions Credit. Qualify for it and you may be eligible to take a credit of $1,000 for singles and $2,000 if you're filing jointly. The credit is eligible for those that make contributions to 401ks and retirement vehicles. The amount of the credit is determined on a sliding scale based on how much you make and contribute.

You can claim the retirement savings tax credit:

1. Individual taxpayers with incomes of $25,000 or less.

2. Individual taxpayers that are head of households and make $37,500 or less.

3. Married couples filing jointly who make $50,000 or less cumulatively.

There are some very minor restrictions regarding who is eligible for the tax credit. First, you have to be older than 18. Second, you can't be a full time student. Finally, another dependent can't claim you as a dependent on their tax returns.

Importantly, this tax credit is in addition to other tax advantages you gain from piling money into a retirement account. With a 401k, for instance, you can pound in pre-tax earnings, which cuts down your adjusted gross income for the tax year. Once you figure out your taxes, you can then deduct another $1,000 or so for the tax credit. Put another way, saving for your retirement is a no brainer.

The federal government is practically begging you to put away money for retirement. With this tax credit, there is absolutely no reason to fail to comply.
