For example, if you receive a large tax refund from the IRS, it means you paid out too much in income tax the year before and, essentially, lent your money to the government interest free. Fortunately, a talk with a licensed tax specialist before the end of the year may help you avoid both that and having to pay a lot next tax time. Here are a few hints on how: • Make sure your W-4 form at work is up to date and i lled out in your favor. Does it have the correct number for your dependents? • Institute, increase or max out retirement contributions. Contrib- ute more to your 401(k) to reduce your taxable income and your tax bill. If you don’t have one, or an IRA, now might be a good time to start. • Be generous. Charitable git s and certain presents to relatives may yield tax benei ts. In addition to money git s, donating clothes, toys and household items to charity can lead to a tax deduction. Keep a list of what you gave and its fair market value and get a receipt from the or- ganization. You may also be able to deduct travel and other expenses of volunteering. 990 ✦ STATEWIDE CLASSIFIEDS 990 ✦ STATEWIDE CLASSIFIEDS SERVICES: DIVORCE $155. Complete preparation.
