The IRS cautions taxpayers to beware of an emerging scam involving buying clean energy tax credits. Unscrupulous tax return preparers are targeting individuals filing Form 1040, claiming IRA credits to offset income tax from sources that are not considered passive income — the only type that can be used for purchased credits. Taxpayers claiming inappropriate credits risk future compliance action by the IRS. Be tax aware and visit https://buff.ly/46lIrkA for more information on clean energy!

It's #NationalCherryDay! With their vibrant color and delicious, sweet-tart flavor, cherries are a beloved summertime fruit packed with healthy nutrients. Whether you like them baked in a pie, topping an ice cream sundae, or all by themselves, cherries are a tasty treat…and if you've ever lined up three in a row on a slot machine, you've really hit the jackpot! Which is a good reminder that gambling winnings are considered taxable income. Not sure how to report your earnings? Our customer service staff is "berry good" about helping you answer tax-related questions year-round. Don't hesitate to reach out! https://buff.ly/3gPzLZF
