Credit Card Chip Technology: It’s Going to Take Awhile

Posted by wpadmin | Posted in Business and Corporations, Financial Advisement, Personal Finance, Taxes | Posted on 08-02-2016

As seen here, the expectation is people may be wary about the whole credit card switch thing from magnetized strip to tiny computer chip (especially with credit card fraud always being a problem) despite these three reasons why we shouldn’t be scared. We’re protective over our plastic! However, fear not: this isn’t a change that’s going to happen overnight, even though the two major credit card companies, Visa and MasterCard, recently announced back in October that all consumers will be receiving new cards with credit card chip technology enhancements.

The Big Issue Is Functionality, Really: Not That Credit Card Chip Technology’s Unreliable!credit card chip technology-1

In fact, many foreign countries utilize the EMV standard over the magnetic strip with astounding protective results. ID theft and credit card fraud become extinct dinosaurs in this ever-evolving landscape of finance and technology, but would you like to know specifically why this transition from magnetic strip to credit card chip technology is going to take a long time? Click here.

Additionally, it’s not like we and credit card companies will be the only ones facing the change. Retailers will face it, too. Think about all those grocery lines needing new installments of those specialized credit card readers. You’ve imagined the clerk hopelessly throwing away that manual card swiper all those generations ago. We’re at it again, people. Those automatic card swiping machines will also go extinct.

But the change will have to be gradual once you see the gravity of how much businesses all over the nation will have to transition and accommodate the new credit card chip technology. Want to know how many merchants out there are ready for the change (and when everyone will be completely operational)? Find out right here.

Needless to Say, It’s a Tricky Situation

But the good news is you don’t have to stress right now. In fact, you might not even notice the transition as its happening. We don’t want the consumer base to be stressed! No one does. We’re not in charge of it, of course, but the fact remains — if financial establishments are starting to make it difficult for our customers wanting to simply file their taxes, or plan their budgets, we’re not happy.

So it’s our duty to inform you ahead of time. It’s our pleasure. Sign up today and let’s get to work on your finances right now before more dinosaurs go extinct.

The 529 College Savings Plan: Benefiting Taxes and Education

Posted by wpadmin | Posted in Business and Corporations, Financial Advisement, Government, Personal Finance, Taxes | Posted on 22-01-2016

Talk about killing two birds with one stone: the 529 college savings plan, operating very much like a retirement plan, not only saves up some on the expense for college later on life, but cuts down on your taxes over time. A nice little tax shelter benefiting you in the long run and ensuring your kids get the quality college education they deserve.

But How Does the 529 College Savings Plan Work?tax return-1

Also known as qualified tuition programs (QTPs), the way contributions work for these types of plans is that it allows you to defer your taxes. All your contributions to these ‘accounts’, if you wish to call them that, are tax-free. It, therefore, means that when it comes time for your budding college student to leave the family nest and venture out into the unknown, you can pull the funds out and not pay any federal tax for the tuition costs, room, and board. Even better is the benefit that you most likely won’t even have to worry about any state tax if the beneficiary, your child going to college, sticks with a university that’s in the same state. Like we said: killing two birds with one stone, education and finances.

This ultimately saves you on the taxes, as a veritable tax shelter, cutting down with these beneficial credits. Plans do vary, so sign up with the Income Tax Planning Network right away and then consult your ITPN specialist to see what your options are. You may have a variety of lifetime contribution limits, some ranging around $200K, so crunch your numbers and see what you’ve got.

Because the Future of Your Child’s Education Ultimately Revolves Around Your Future Finances

The 1031 Exchange: Building Bigger Houses of Cards

Posted by wpadmin | Posted in Business and Corporations, Financial Advisement, Government, Personal Finance, Taxes | Posted on 22-01-2016

We’re sure many wonder just how people get rich: tenacity. That’s the only way we can describe it. It all boils down to how you buy a candy bar for a buck and then sell it for two bucks. Simple as that. Increase the scale as high as you want to go, and you have a major money maker on your hands. That’s why selling homes can be a lucrative business, especially when you involve crowdfunding, but even more so, you save a ton of money on your taxes offsetting real estate capital gains or losses with this:

The 1031 Exchange: Investing Your Business in Something Biggertax return house of cards

How so? How does this work? Simply put, a 1031 Exchange in the IRS Code allows any real estate investor the ability to sell a property, take a profit, and then defer capital gains or losses provided the proceeds go to a reinvestment in a new similar used building. Think of house flipping, for instance.

Not all real estate transactions will actually apply to the 1031 Exchange, though; the property you’re reinvesting into would have to be utilized for trade, business or investment. In other words, if you’re living in a house, and then sell it to a buyer, you can’t use your earnings on it to buy another house to live in and then save on the sales taxes you’ll have to pay anyway. It would strictly have to be on the corporate side — a little something aside from the tax write-offs, say, real estate professionals can take advantage of.

So think of a house of cards, getting bigger and bigger. It’s kind of like that idea. Buy a building for, say, $150K and then turn around, sell it for $200K (you’ve just made $50K in profit). You’d have to pay taxes on the profit itself unless you take your entire $200K and invest in another property. This tax benefit often works quite well for house flippers for obvious reasons, but you get the picture. Keep reinvesting on more and more buildings, and you’ll continually make more and more profit over time while saving on your taxes. That’s the idea anyway.

Honestly, some tactics can be downright disgusting when it comes to so-called “tax shelters” (withholding our approval), and others are so smart that we award such experts the veritable title of successful tax giant, like these smart real estate agents with their write-offs. It’s those worthy masters of tax goodness capable of dispelling the old negative adage that is this: oooooh, have to file the taxes, and pray for a decent return.

Face It: No One Likes to File Their Taxes

It’s honestly a pain at times. You can even pay hundreds of dollars to have a CPA do the work for you, but even then you’re not getting back everything you want in a tax refund. And here’s the reason why the outlook is so negative — not many know what to do about tax credits! Or even how many possible tax credits there are.tax shelter-1

True, you have to qualify for a lot of tax credits based on income. But even if you’re a middle-class citizen, play the cards right, sign up with the Income Tax Planning Network at a great price, and you can easily rock it with at least one of these great tax shelters:

These tax shelters could make it feel like the government’s paying you.

But You Won’t Know How to Apply for These Tax Shelters….

Unless you sign up for the Income Tax Planning Network. Take a look at your options. If you own some rural land, who knows…. (you might qualify for that kind of tax shelter). What state do you live in? That might make all the difference. What if you’re getting divorced? Not a problem.

But you won’t know unless you contact us. Sign up today and maximize your tax refund.

Life just happens, good or bad, for many families out there in the United States. There’s no denying it. Single mothers, even single fathers: low-income families have a burden on their shoulders where basic bookkeeping becomes a stress of mammoth proportions due to the fact that there’s never enough income generated to pay necessary bills just to make it day by day.

So what has to be in place? Simply put, government aid. It’s almost a necessity for low-income families. But whether you think it’s a crutch or not, and whether many simply seem to take advantage of the benefits offered by the government, one thing is clear — even the families that do work hard seem to only make it by the skin of their teeth, having to pull from their next paychecks to pay back someone who lent money, or robbing “Peter” to pay numerous “Pauls,” because the fact is this — government aid can only do so much in comparison to personal finances (and, yet, there’s so much going into those funds that it may shock you).

Here Are Five Facts That Just Might Blow You Away With Respect to Government Aid and Low-Income Familieslow-income families

What Do These Facts Mean to You? That They Prove Benefits Don’t Benefit?

On the contrary…. They certainly make their mark. If it wasn’t for these programs, you’d have single parents on minimum wage or low-income families stuck in homeless shelters without any way to make the rent payment. That’s just a matter of fact….

But when you’ve got a certain fast-food chain making anywhere around $4.8BB in annual profits, it begs the question about employment — why not pay your workers what they earn with all the hours they put in, or want to put in, so they can get off of government aid and not have to pick and choose on their expenses?

Your average low-income worker will have just over $6K in annual income and about $11K in benefits for food, rent and child care. How’s that for a perspective on low-income families?

ITPN recognizes there’s a problem with the current system we have in place. So let’s fix it. Now.
