Arizona Family Rebate

Energy Tax Credits — In the true form of Congress, tax law has been adjusted again. Energy tax credits have been increased in value and duration. The Inflation Reduction Act extended and expanded many energy-related credits. If you made energy improvements to your home in 2022 or 2023, you may be eligible for significant credits. Call me to discuss how these changes affect your return.

2023 is Here! Are you ready?

Too late to make changes for 2022 but Arizona tax credits are still available through tax day. Arizona has gone to a flat rate tax of 2.5% — a significant change from the previous graduated rate structure. This flat rate applies to all Arizona taxable income. The good news: Arizona still offers valuable tax credits for charitable contributions and education that can reduce your Arizona tax liability dollar-for-dollar. Don't miss these opportunities!
