Lower Your Liability Before Filing Season Arrives

Elite Tax Solutions offers year-round tax planning services to reduce future tax liability for residents and business owners in Augusta.

You earn income in Augusta through a business, rental properties, or employment that puts you in a higher bracket, and by the time you sit down to file your return, most opportunities to reduce what you owe have already passed. Tax planning works throughout the year to align deductions, timing decisions, and entity structures with your financial goals so you pay what is required and nothing more.

Elite Tax Solutions delivers proactive tax planning services that use experience and foresight to reduce future liability for business owners and high-income households across the Augusta area. You receive guidance on retirement contributions, estimated payment schedules, business expense tracking, and strategies that coordinate with your bookkeeping and financial statements. Planning sessions address both immediate decisions and multi-year strategies, particularly valuable in growing markets where income and asset values are changing.

If you want to plan early rather than react at filing time, contact Elite Tax Solutions to schedule a planning consultation in Augusta.

Planning adjusts as your income and goals shift

When you begin tax planning with Elite Tax Solutions in Augusta, you start with a review of your current income sources, deductions, and prior returns to identify patterns and missed opportunities. You discuss upcoming changes such as equipment purchases, real estate transactions, or retirement account contributions, and those details are used to model different scenarios and recommend timing decisions that lower your overall liability.

After planning sessions, you receive a written summary of recommended actions, deadlines for quarterly payments, and guidance on what documentation to keep throughout the year. Your filing process becomes simpler because decisions were made in advance, and you avoid the surprise of a large balance due in April.

The service includes quarterly check-ins, coordination with your bookkeeper or financial advisor, and adjustments based on changes in income or regulations. It does not include investment advice or legal opinions on complex transactions, but it does ensure that routine tax decisions support your long-term goals and you understand the impact of each choice before committing.

Business owners and high-income households often wonder when to start planning, what decisions matter most, and how often to revisit their strategy, so here are answers to the questions that come up during initial planning meetings.

Most clients ask similar questions at first

You should start at the beginning of the year or as soon as your income situation changes. Early planning gives you the full year to implement strategies, make timing decisions, and adjust quarterly payments before deadlines pass.
When is the best time to start tax planning?
Planning identifies deductions you might miss, times income and expenses to lower taxable income, and coordinates retirement contributions or business purchases to maximize their tax benefit. These decisions are harder to make retroactively.
How does tax planning reduce what I owe?
You should bring your most recent tax return, profit and loss statements, projected income figures, and a list of any large purchases or financial changes you expect during the year. Clear information leads to better recommendations.
What should I bring to a planning session?
Business income fluctuates and decisions about equipment, hiring, or entity structure have immediate tax consequences. Year-round planning allows you to respond to changes in real time and avoid overpaying estimated taxes or missing deductions.
Why do business owners need year-round planning?
Most clients benefit from quarterly check-ins to review income, adjust estimated payments, and discuss upcoming decisions. More frequent meetings may be needed during years with significant business growth or large financial transactions.
How often should I meet with a tax planner?

Business owners in Augusta who plan throughout the year consistently pay less in taxes and face fewer surprises during filing season because decisions were made with clear information and enough time to act.
