facebook.comWhy International Health Insurance is a Good Idea: While it may be a tedious process to research what type of insurance plan would be best for you, and it’s not pleasant to think about having an accident abroad, there are a few reasons why it’s necessary to think about it. • International health insurance covers you away from home. You can think of it as protection and an investment in your health during your journey. • It makes sense financially- Not many people are excited to pay for medical bills out of their own pocket and we are sure you’re included in this group. • US Insurance does not always cover you outside of the US- Because you have health insurance inside the US, this does not mean it will automatically cover you overseas. You will want to check with your US plan as to where it will cover you and what benefits are included in that coverage. #HealthInsurance #International #USTaxPractice

Business Losses: Your business can lose money in a tax year for many reasons, including a bad economy or theft or casualty losses. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allows you to deduct your losses against your income in future or past years for federal tax purposes. This can result in a tax refund from the IRS of all or part of the taxes you paid in prior years. You might even be able to deduct your losses from your state taxes, but the rules for this vary from state to state. #Business #USTax
Repairs & Improvements: The IRS draws a distinction between repairs and improvements, Repairs keep your rental property in good condition without increasing the property’s value. Deductible repair expenses include painting, replacing broken windows and doors, repairing broken flooring and plumbing repairs. Improvement expenses can be recovered through depreciation. #Repair #Improvement #USTax
