Tax Reduction on Investments

Tax rules allow you to deduct a portion of your stock losses, called capital losses, which can reduce your tax bill.

The rules concerning capital losses are strict and specific. Capital losses can be used to offset ordinary income only if they exceed your capital gains. There are limits on the deduction.

Taxpayers who are looking to refinance or sell a home and there is a federal tax lien filed, have options.

Taxpayers or their representatives, such as their bank, can ask that the IRS make a tax lien secondary to the lien by the bank that is refinancing or restructuring a loan.

Taxpayers can request that the IRS discharge its claim if the home is being sold for less than the amount of the mortgage lien under certain circumstances.
