However, sadly, you may in fact be paying more than you have to – – especially now that the President’s “Tax Cut and Jobs Act” has caused many Californians’ federal income taxes to go up in 2018. (If you haven’t filed your 2018 return yet, I’m sorry to inform you that you may be rudely awakened when you do!)
My point is this. We may be able to help you navigate the new tax laws and significantly cut your income taxes, if any of these apply to you:
You have interest and dividend income totaling over $50,000
You are near to or over age 70, and have IRA accounts with a total value over $200,000 (if you are married, over $200,000 combined)
You regularly make charitable donations of over $10,000 a year
You have CD’s, stocks and bonds (outside of IRAs) worth over $500,000
You have stocks, rental real estate or a business that you’re thinking of selling, which have appreciated more than $250,000
You have over $100,000 of income on your Schedule C (self-employed business) or Schedule E (rental real estate, LLC or Subchapter S Corporation)
