As another year comes to a close, it’s time to turn our attention to preparing for the upcoming tax season. At Baun & Pate Investment Group, our goal is to help you navigate this process with ease and confidence. This provides reminders on contribution deadlines, contribution limits, as well as other key information to help you stay organized and informed. Next month we will focus on tax rates, tax savings opportunities and filing deadlines.

We have already heard from many of you regarding your registered contributions for this year, please keep in mind that the information provided in these emails is all encompassing and some of the items mentioned may not apply or have already been addressed.

With careful planning and preparation, we can work together to ensure a smooth and successful tax filing experience. If you have any questions or need assistance along the way, we’re here to help.
