Investment Income Tax Services
We can help with a variety of investment-related tax services. Whether you need to report your incentive stock options or require assistance in timing the sale of your investments to minimize taxes, we're here to advise and help. Minimize the tax you pay on your capital gains and keep more of your hard-earned investment income.
Capital Gains and Losses
We will calculate capital gains or losses from the sale of stocks or other investments, as well as determine whether they are short-term or long-term. If you are unsure what your assets basis is, we can assist in determining it to ensure proper tax reporting. This may be necessary when selling assets that have been gifted, inherited, or used for business purposes.
Dividends
We will accurately report your qualified and non-qualified dividends, as well as explain the tax consequences of both.
Employee Stock
Our licensed tax advisors can offer guidance on a variety of employee stocks. Incentive Stock Options (ISOs), Nonqualified Stock Options (NSOs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Employee Stock Purchase Plans (ESPPs) are all treated differently and require careful tax planning. Our years of experience navigating these unique stocks allows us to advise on exercise timing, selling shares, and the complexities of alternative minimum tax (AMT).
Tax Loss Harvesting
Tax loss harvesting is a strategy used to offset capital gains. By utilizing tax loss harvesting, you may potentially be able to reduce your taxable income and overall tax due. Our tax advisors are here to help you make the most of this strategy.
Investment Income Strategies
In order to minimize your tax liabilities associated with investment income, it is prudent to choose tax-efficient investments, time asset sales, and use retirement accounts. We are here to help you understand how different choices can impact your tax situation.
State Tax Reporting
If your investments are located across state lines, or you moved during the year, you may have filing requirements in multiple states. We will properly allocate your investment income to the proper states, so you do not run afoul with state tax authorities.
