This article discusses how there are two main strategies that individuals can take advantage of in order to lower their tax bills, deductions, and credits. While tax deductions lower your taxable income, tax credits are “a dollar-for-dollar reduction to your tax bill.” However, many people do not know of or forget about all the things that can qualify as either a deduction or credit. For example, tuition and fees deductions, educator expenses, and home office deductions are just a few. No matter the industry that you operate in, be sure to check out this link for the full list and to save as much money as possible this tax season!
