Making a mistake on a tax return can be stressful—but there's good news for some taxpayers.

The IRS has introduced Automatic Exemption from Penalty (AEP), a new program that may automatically waive certain penalties for eligible taxpayers with a strong history of filing and paying their taxes on time.

If you qualify, you generally don't need to request the relief. The IRS will apply it automatically during processing and notify you if the relief is granted.

Keep in mind:
âś” Not every return qualifies.
âś” Taxes and interest still apply if they're owed.
âś” Other penalty relief options may be available for taxpayers who don't qualify.

It's another reminder that staying current with your tax obligations can pay off in more ways than one.

Questions about your tax situation? We're here to help.

Success isn't built in a day.

It's built through the small decisions made every day—and those decisions are easier when you have accurate financial information.

Keeping your records organized throughout the year doesn't just make tax season easier. It helps you understand your business, manage cash flow, plan for growth, and make confident decisions when opportunities arise.

Whether you're running a family business, managing a farm, or growing your company, good records provide the foundation for long-term success.

At Sikora & Associates, we're here to help you build that foundation.

Identity theft isn't just about stolen credit cards—it can affect your tax return, too.

An IRS Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) is a free six-digit number that helps verify your identity when you file your federal tax return. Even if someone obtains your Social Security number, an IP PIN adds an extra layer of protection against tax-related identity theft.

A few things to know:
âś” It's free to request.
âś” A new PIN is issued each year.
âś” The IRS will never call, text, email, or message you on social media asking for your IP PIN.

If you're looking for additional ways to protect your personal information, an IP PIN may be worth considering.

Have questions about protecting your tax information? We're happy to help.
