Year-end tax planning is as much about the 2012
tax year as it is about the 2011 tax year. That's
because there's a real opportunity for tax savings
when you can predict that you'll be paying taxes
at a lower rate in one year than in the other. Of
course, to effectively plan, you have to have a
good understanding of not only your own financial
situation, but the tax rules that apply for both
years. Luckily, legislation passed in December of
2010 extended several expiring tax provisions
through 2012, allowing you to consider potential
year-end moves with a relative degree of
certainty.
