One issue that may come up in future newsletters is the AMT, alternative minimum tax, a set of regulations designed to reign in excessive deductions by the wealthy. While its intentions are good, the AMT is increasingly being applied to middle-class people. With exemptions being capped at just $62,550 for married couples and $42,500 for individuals, more and more average earners are paying the AMT. People taking credits for medical expenses and dependents, or even high state and local taxes, must calculate taxes in a traditional manner (through income tax return forms such as 1040 tax forms), as well as calculate according to AMT guides. They must then pay whichever taxation rate is higher. Until this law is reformed to cut out the middle-class from additional taxes, we all have to keep the AMT in the back of our minds each year as we approach the April 15 filing deadline.

Don't let this law discourages you from seeking any and all deductions for which you are eligible - those deductions may add up to an IRS tax refund. If you plan to itemize medical expenses, charitable donations and other possible deductions, you can get all your supplemental paperwork right here in once place.
