If you’re a small business owner in 2024, you’re probably worried about keeping your expenses down. While we can’t do anything about all the inflation in recent years, we can tell you about some tax savings opportunities you may qualify for.
Here are some great tax reduction strategies for small businesses today.
Research Overlooked Tax Incentives
Even with a great CPA, many business owners don’t know about all the special tax incentives they can benefit from at the federal, state, and local levels. With just a little research, you may be able to find some opportunities you’ve missed.
For example, many small business owners are not aware they qualify for the Work Opportunity Tax Credit, which has been extended through 2025. This credit rewards employers who hire individuals facing barriers to employment. If you employ qualified SNAP recipients, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients, ex-felons who were hired less than a year after their conviction date or prison release, or certain veterans, you may qualify.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce offers a list of commonly overlooked small business tax credits. You may want to check out the list and see if you qualify for any of the credits mentioned.
Sole Proprietors: See If You Qualify For a Unique Tax Credit
To qualify for FFCRA Qualified Sick & Family Paid Leave Wage Credits, you must have been a sole proprietor or self-employed individual in 2020 or 2021. You must also have missed work due to at least one of the following:
- Quarantine
- Illness
- Childcare
- Vaccination
Since the rules have changed since the program was implemented, many sole proprietors mistakenly think they aren’t eligible for this tax credit. After a professional review of your situation, you may find that you can claim the credit after all.
