Tips for 2012
Tip 1 - Roth IRA Conversion Taxes
You can convert a traditional individual retirement account to a Roth IRA, regardless of age. When the conversion option first became available in 2010, a special feature allowed individuals who converted to a Roth IRA to spread the taxes due equally over the 2011 and 2012tax years. That means your first Roth conversion tax bill will be included on your 2011 return filed in 2012. Make sure you have that cash on hand, and plan now for the 2012 conversion bill if necessary.
Tip 2 - Claim your American Opportunity
The American Opportunity Tax Credit was a mainaddition of the 2009 stimulus bill. The new education tax break expanded the existing Hope Credit, providing a credit of up to $2,500 of the cost of qualified tuition and related expenses, and up to $1,000 of the credit could come back to the taxpayer as a refund. The American Opportunity Credit was to end in 2010, but was extended through 2012. Be aware that this could be the last year for this credit. A popular way to cut the federal deficit is to allow tax breaks to expire so if you have eligible education expenses, be sure to claim the American Opportunity Credit.
Tip 3 - Notice reported health care info on on W-2
Your 2011 W-2 will have new information on the form. Box 12 is where employers will report the cost of your workplace's group health insurance coverage. This amount is both the amount the business pays as well as the premiums paid by payroll deductions by the employees.Don't worry, it is not taxable income and will be designated by the code DD. It's informational only, designed to help confirm taxpayers who have coverage. Under the health care reform law, the Affordable Care Act, the data will help to enforce the eventual individual coverage.If you do not see a number in Box 12, not to worry as this is optional for employers to report in 2011.
Tip 4 - Pay attention to Form 1099-K
If you get a Form 1099-K in 2012, don't ignore it. The new form records payments received in 2011 by credit card or through third-party networks such as PayPal. This added income reporting mechanism was created as part of the Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2008 and is finally taking effect for the 2011 tax year because of concerns that some small businesses do not report all of their income.
Tip 5 - Be ready for basis reporting on asset sales, etc.
The 2011 tax year begins the time when brokers must report to the IRS an asset's basis, the value that is used to determine profit when you sell it. That amount will show up on the 1099 forms you receive in 2012 for 2011 stock transactions.
Tip 6 - Accelerate income
Many tax experts will tell you to pay no tax before its time. However, impending income tax rate changes might make 2012 the exception to that traditional tax thought.The top ordinary income tax bracket in 2012 is 35 percent of annual taxable income. The highest tax rate may go to 39.6 percent in 2013. So, if you're in the top tax bracket, you might want to accelerate income into 2012 and pay taxes at the lower rate.
