Mid-Year Tax Planning: What to Do Before December

Most taxpayers think about taxes in April — when it's too late to change much. The smartest tax moves happen mid-year, when you still have time to adjust withholding, maximize retirement contributions, and review your deduction strategy before December 31 locks everything in.

Q3 2026 Estimated Tax Deadline

If you're self-employed, run a business, or have investment income, the September 15, 2026 estimated tax payment covers income from June through August. Missing it means an underpayment penalty calculated at the current IRS rate (8% annualized). We help clients calculate the exact payment needed to hit the safe-harbor threshold and avoid penalties entirely.

W-4 Adjustments

A job change, raise, marriage, or new dependent earlier in 2026 may have pushed your withholding off-target. We review your year-to-date withholding and calculate any correction needed before year-end. A corrected W-4 submitted in July has six months to right-size your outcome — avoiding both a surprise tax bill and a large unnecessary refund.

Retirement Contribution Checkup

The 2026 401(k) limit is $23,500 ($31,000 if you're 50 or older). Increasing your contribution rate now is one of the most effective dollar-for-dollar tax reductions still available at this point in the year. We analyze whether increasing your pre-tax contributions or switching to Roth makes more sense based on your projected 2026 bracket.

Contact us to schedule a mid-year planning review — there's no obligation and most adjustments take less than a single appointment.
