Tax moves to make in June 2011

June 1, 2011

Summer is here, but there's no vacation from taxes.

Sure, you don't have to worry about 1040 specifics, unless you got an extension and still haven't filed your 2010 return (guilty!). Remember, we tax procrastinators still can rely on the Daily Tax Tips that I published through April 18 to help fill out our forms by Oct. 17.

You can find some tax-saving strategies here on the ol' blog. I don't mean just my daily posts, but in the June Tax Moves listed in the left column.

Just scroll down a bit and you'll find such tax suggestions (and links for more information) on hurricane season preparedness, home energy upgrades and an estimated tax filing reminder.

There are even a couple of family-related tax moves, like the one for couples who have June weddings on their calendars, as well as some tax thoughts for folks who will celebrate Father's Day with an aging dad.

As the month goes on, I'll elaborate on some of these tax considerations. But you can get a preview today in the full list of June Tax Moves and then come back periodically to check it out at your leisure through the 30th.

Tax-Savvy Ways to Wrap Up 2026

It’s over! With October’s extended filing deadline behind us, it is now time to focus on year-end moves to reduce your 2026 tax bill. 

You’ll find ways to do just that on this Tax Tips page, as well as the separate tax tip pages for each month, notably October through December. Most tax moves must be made by Dec. 31, which also is the last business day of the year. 

Not to spoil what you’ll find in that tax advice, but it does cover such things as tax deductions for charitable donations, investment moves that could reduce tax due, and ways to max out your tax-favored retirement savings. 

So that you don’t miss that final tax year deadline, also keep an eye on the countdown clock below. It will help you make sure you don’t miss any tax due dates, as well as let you know just how much time is left to make important, tax-saving moves. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
