New Taxfocus on some new tax
Tips
This week I will
law changes which will benefit the taxpayer.
1. Sales Tax Credit for New Vehicles: You
can claim the sales tax on a new vehicle pur-
chase even if you do not itemize.
2. There is up to a $400.00 tax credit for
people who have earned income for 2009.
This is similar to a stimulus payment in the
past. If you have no earned income credit but
do have a pension or annuity distribution,
you can claim a $250.00 tax credit.
3.
Standard deductions and exemptions
have increased. MFJ increased $500.00 to
$11400.00, Single filers increased $250.00
to $5700.00, and Head of Household filers
get a $350.00 jump to $8350.00.
The increase for exemptions
(personal and dependents) of $150.00 to
$3650.00 applies to everyone.
Feel free to call me, Rick Rubrigi,
to schedule an appointment or discuss a tax
issue you have. Also, take advantage of my
free tax return check for errors. Bring in your
last 3 years tax return to see if you received
proper credit. There is no charge unless an
amended return is needed.
Hours are Mon-Sat. 9am to 4 pm. in
