Do you pay even $1 of tax to the State of Arizona? If the answer is yes, then you can choose to pledge those dollars directly to education or to charitable organizations that assist the working poor. There are 2 types of Arizona Tax Credits that support the funding of education in Arizona. There is the private school tuition credit and the public school fee credit. The Arizona Dept of Revenue has recently updated their website, and if you click on the link below, you will find the details you need to take advantage of these 2009 tax credits before December 31st. Pros/Cons of Extending your Return There are really almost no cons to extending your return, unless of course you are expecting a huge refund. Most of our clients (that have been with us for more than a year) will not be expecting huge refunds, since we take the extra time as a part of our service, to review and adjust your tax withholdings and estimated payments for the following year. Why leave your money on deposit with the government? They will just use it to bail out another failing American institution…while your family continues to struggle to earn and save and realize the American dream! eeCPA PLC is different in that rather than just looking at historical data and making estimates based on that data, we actually take a forward looking approach to anticipate new changes in your business or financial life. Further, by staying on top of the new tax law changes, we apply the new law to our forward-looking calculations to save you from paying more tax than you should.
