Posted by Tax Man - 28/03/10 at 03:03 amJuegos Texas is home to some of the biggest military bases in the world. If you are PCS’ing to a military base in any city in Texas, you may want to consider using your Texas-Vet-VA home loan benefits along with the tax credit that was just extended.
THE BASICS
The first part of the extended programs has some great benefits. You may purchase a new home that is $800,000.00 or less. For singles you may not make more than $125,000.00 annually and for couples, that income is restricted to making no more than $225,000.00 annually. If you sell your home within three years of buying you will have to return the refund.
Trabajar You must be under a real estate contract no later than midnight on April 30, 2010. You will be allowed 60 days thereafter, until June 30, 2010, to close and get your loan funded by your lender. If you already own a home, there is another caveat in Bill H.R. 3548 that gives you another incentive. Homeowners who wish to purchase a new primary residence would be eligible for a $6,500.00 tax credit beginning December 1st if they have owned their home for five consecutive years in the previous eight.
Trabajo Empleo THIS BILL AND OUR MILITARY
If you are military family (of course this is nationally) you have a wee bit more flexibility for the deadline and extension. If you have been deployed for 90 days or longer in 2008 or 2009, you will have until April 30, 2011 to sign that same real estate contract mentioned above. That’s huge! Think of what that would mean to your family. You’re serving our country and it would be and obviously strain and very tough to make a big financial decision like that when you have your mind just staying safe and out of harm’s way. You will have the luxury of coming home, taking time with your family to make the right decision and not one made out of haste.
Spring
If you prepared early, then come spring you can quickly and painlessly file your tax return. April 15th is the deadline to get your return in, and the sooner you file the better. If you intend to have your return prepared by a tax professional, then try going before April to avoid the last minute rush. It’s also a good idea to go early so that your tax preparer is not rushed and can dedicate enough time to preparing the best return possible for you.
Fortunately the tax deadline lands right in the middle of the Spring season, so once you have filed your return you can sit back and enjoy the rest of your Spring. If you got a refund from the IRS then you might have a little extra money to spend. However, just remember that it is never too early to start planning for next tax season. Therefore you might want to use that refund to purchase a qualifying energy efficient appliance or even put a down payment on a tax friendly hybrid vehicle.
Summer
The summer season brings hot weather and relaxation. If you filed your return on time then you can enjoy the summer without worrying about your taxes. However, if you missed the IRS deadline then you will want to get your return filed as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more you will have to pay in IRS penalties and fees.
In between BBQs and pool parties, you can also take advantage of the summer to get an early start on next tax season. Make sure you are keeping all of your financial documents in a safe place. If you do not have one, then go out and get yourself a file cabinet or a security box. Make sure that you are labeling all of your receipts, and that you are keeping all of your documents organized as you accumulate them. It is much easier to keep track of your finances when all of your records are in order, and will help you stay focused on tax planning throughout the year you can be published without charge.
