☆ Barbara’s Favorite Tax Tip

Get Incorporated in you are a Contractor. If the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) is forgiven, it cannot be considered as income and it's not a deduction on your expenses when filing taxes.

One bonus tip: if you use the standard deduction this year (2021) you can deduct $600 for charity.
