You should contact a qualified local tax practitioner such as an
Enrolled Agent (EA) or Certified Public Accountant (CPA)!

Amazing! You mean you can make a donation today but maybe get them to
issue a letter for 2006? Or am I just a year late and two dollars short?

All kidding aside, this is tax fraud!

That's like tomorrow - or today - or last week - depending on when you read
this.

Tomorrow, we're sticking around till the mail runs, then closed for the
remainder of the year.

It's a tad late for any significant 2007 tax planning.

Too late for 2006
Did you mean 2007?
If so, you should contact your own CPA & do a projection before Dec 31

There is a myriad of things you can do to save on your 2006 taxes.
That is no problem. It is the whole time travel thing that will be
the hard part.

2006 is stale toast already.






For 2007 there's a big charitable donation lurking tomorrow (Sunday) or
Monday if you like.

By the due date of the return you might could max out an IRA contribution.

In only one more day after the weekend, as others say it's going to be
pretty difficult. Only real way I can see would be to hand-carry an
appropriately-sized donation to your local charity of choice if you can
find one around on New Year's Eve day--your local church will be around
tomorrow undoubtedly. Other than that, what's done is pretty much done
for this year. Even that's stretching the letter of the law, probably,
as it's not likely the funds can actually be transferred to the
receiving entity, but if you can get them to issue the required letter
showing 2006, you would likely be safe. Of course, that's a real
donation so you're out the funds, just saving some taxes of course which
undoubtedly isn't what you had in mind...

for reducing taxes. A couple of them said that it's sorta late to be
thinking about reducing your 2006 taxes. They said it's pretty late
to be planning your 2007 taxes, also.

If you are only worried about filing late, a tax accountant or EA
would probably be best. Filing sooner is cheaper than postponing,
and it reduces stress on you. The IRS would like to welcome you
back. Even if you can't pay it all off immediately, they will give
you fairly reasonable interest rates. Your state would welcome you
back also, but their interest rates may be less reasonable.

If you have a lot of illegal income or if you are going to be
"creative" in some way, you could need that lawyer.

Would someone please tell me the best way to reduce taxes for year
2006. Would a lawyer be my best bet? Thanks
