Electing to Expense the Cost of Your Business Assets
Section 179 deduction limits increase

The IRS allows taxpayers the option of either depreciating some assets over a specified number of years or deducting all or a portion of the cost in one year. The expense election, commonly referred to as the Section 179 deduction, is made in the year the asset is placed in service. The benefit is a large deduction in the current year that is not reduced even if the asset is placed in service late in the tax year.

Direct Deposit of Your Tax Refund
More options are available to you

The IRS is now allowing taxpayers who are due a tax refund the option of having that refund split up and deposited in up to three different bank accounts. This can include a retirement savings account such as an IRA. This option is available to you whether you file a paper return or electronically file your return. However, if you file your tax return electronically and opt for direct deposit, you can receive your refund in two weeks or less.

Personal Quick Tip

If you tax refund was too high or too low, adjust your withholding so it doesn't happen again next year. You can file a revised W-4 with your employer at any time to increase or decrease the number of exemptions you claim. The more exemptions you claim, the less tax your employer withholds from your wages, resulting in a smaller refund. Decreasing the number of exemptions results in more withholding and a larger refund.
