In this episode of Influential Entrepreneurs, host Mike Saunders welcomes financial professional Urban Adams to discuss timely tax tips for better tax preparation. With a focus on planning, Urban works with a diverse range of clients, primarily in the southwestern US.

Tax planning is a vital aspect of a comprehensive financial strategy, and clients should take a proactive approach in gathering relevant information for their tax preparers. This diligence can help them avoid missing deductions and reduce unnecessary stress during tax season.

One of the key strategies Urban employs is sending annual tax letter summaries to his clients. These summaries outline the tax documents clients should expect from their custodians and highlight important activities that may not be captured on standard tax forms, such as contributions to donor-advised funds, Roth conversions, and 529 contributions. This proactive approach equips clients to prepare for their meetings with tax preparers, ensuring they have all necessary documentation and information readily available.

Urban also points out that many clients may not fully appreciate the significance of certain deductions, such as 529 contributions or Health Savings Account (HSA) contributions, which can vary by state. By bringing these items to their client’s attention, he helps them avoid the stress of scrambling to find documents when their CPA requests them. This preparation not only alleviates anxiety but also increases the likelihood of maximizing deductions and minimizing tax liabilities.

Moreover, Urban emphasizes the importance of collaboration between financial advisors and tax preparers.

In conclusion, proactive tax planning is essential for clients to effectively navigate the complexities of their financial situations. By gathering relevant information and collaborating closely with their financial advisors and tax preparers, clients can avoid missing deductions, reduce stress during tax season, and ultimately enhance their overall financial well-being.

Urban shared: “If we’re ignoring tax planning, we’re missing out on a great deal of opportunity there.”
