Tax breaks for Mom

May 9, 2010

Happy Mother's Day! 

A lot of moms, in addition to all their other tasks both at home and in many cases at an outside-the-house job, also are in charge of their families' finances.

I know you're not thinking about money or taxes today. Good. You deserve a day off.

But when you again focus on all your many responsibilities, here's a collection of tax and financial considerations from the ol' blog, my stories on Bankrate.com and other sources.

I hope these help you save all you moms a few tax dollars. If so, be sure you spend that money on yourself!

Hello Tax Season 2026

Happy New Tax Year! Are you ready to file your 2025 tax return? I know, too early to ask. But Tax Day 2026 will be here before we realize it. The Internal Revenue Service deadline to file and pay any tax we owe is the regular April 15 date this year. It’s also Tax Day for most of the states that collect income taxes from their residents, which is most of the states! If that seems too far away right now, don’t worry. As is the case every tax season, the ol’ blog’s tips and other tax reminders should help all of us meet our state and federal responsibilities. Procrastinators also will want to keep an eye on the countdown clock just below. It tracks how much time we have until April’s Tax Day, just in case we put off our annual tax task until the absolutely final hours and decide we need to instead get an extension request into the IRS by that date. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
