Many people only think about taxes during tax season—but that’s often too late to make big changes. That’s where tax planning comes in.

🔹 What is tax planning?

Tax planning means reviewing your income, expenses, and business activity ahead of time to:

  • Lower the amount of taxes you owe
  • Take advantage of deductions and credits
  • Avoid surprises at tax time

This can be done year-round, not just in April.

🔹 Benefits of tax planning

  • 📉 Pay less in taxes by adjusting income or expenses
  • 💡 Know how much to save for your tax payment
  • 🧾 Prepare estimated taxes (for self-employed)
  • ✅ Avoid late penalties or missing deadlines

🔹 Simple strategies you can use

  • Track your monthly income and expenses
  • Set aside a portion of income for taxes (10–20%)
  • Consider opening a business bank account
  • Talk to a tax professional in mid-year or fall (not just in April)

🔹 Pro tip

Tax planning is especially important if you:

  • Are self-employed or a contractor
  • Own rental properties or investments
  • Just opened a business
  • Made more money than last year

Don’t wait for tax season—get ahead now. The earlier you plan, the more control you have.
