These measures will have a significant impact on high-income earners, i.e individuals with income over $250,000 ($300,000 for couples). Depending on your particular situation, there are strategies that we can discuss with you in order to mitigate the effects of the tax hikes, such as:

  • Reducing investment income by utilizing tax-efficient investment models;
  • For those who are self-employed, identifying and implementing a retirement plan that allows for the maximum deferral amount;
  • For business owners, reviewing your corporate election in conjunction with your tax advisor.

Please give us a call if you would like to discuss any of these suggestions or, as usual, if you have any questions regarding your finances.
