Reminder: April 1st is the last day for all tax documents to be delivered to our office in order to get your 2025 tax return filed by the April 15th deadline.

Big tax-season heads up for anyone who earned overtime (OT) in 2025:

The One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) was passed on July 4, 2025, and it didn’t leave the IRS much time to update the 2025 Form W-2. As a result, overtime reporting on W-2s may be inconsistent, which can make claiming the related deduction more challenging.

A few employers have been listing overtime in Box 14, but in our experience this filing season, that’s been the exception—not the rule.

Because this deduction can be substantial, we strongly recommend you:
✅ Print your final 2025 pay stub and include it with your tax documents.
Even if you’re salaried, your year-end pay statement often shows total overtime paid for the year, which helps us support your tax filing.

If you have questions or want help figuring out what to look for on your pay stub, reach out—we’re happy to help.

Call now to connect with business.

It's hard to believe, but it's that time of the year again. For your convenience, our extended hours this tax season will begin, Monday, February 16th and run through April 11th.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
