In some towns, the tax deferment will be interest free, while in others it will come with a lowered interest rate. Whether taxpayers need to apply for the deferment also varies from town to town, the Hartford Courant reported. The tax deferments apply to real estate, motor vehicle and personal property taxes.

New Covid relief bill boosts tax breaks for charitable giving in 2021
Giving to charity is about to pay off a little more — that is, if the latest Covid relief bill becomes law.
It also sets a host of changes to the tax code, including an extension of incentives to encourage taxpayers to donate to worthy causes.
Don't overhaul your tax plans just yet. President Donald Trump hasn't signed off on the legislation. In fact, he ordered lawmakers to revise the bill and include $2,000 stimulus payments to households.
How Entrepreneurs Can Save on Taxes by Working Abroad | Inc.com
From freelances to entrepreneurs, self-employed individuals enjoy the freedom to set their own schedules, choose their clients , and work on projects they're passionate about. Particularly for those who've moved their businesses online , being self-employed means having complete control over where, how, and when you work.
However, these advantages come at a cost. Being self-employed makes filing taxes more complex and can increase tax liability in comparison to other types of employment.

What Are the Penalties for Filing Your Taxes Late, or Not Filing at All?

Freeman: Cowboys, wagon trains, and taxes | Columns | trib.com
Shortly after the election, I asked my friend George, a conservative, third generation Wyoming landowner, why he thought Wyoming is the most Republican state in the Union.

But he is no ideologue. As a true conservative, he remains reluctant to make changes; or, if needed, to proceed cautiously and avoid extremes.

Business needs a break on unemployment taxes - The Boston Globe
One huge boost to businesses in Massachusetts can and should come from right here on Beacon Hill — that is, if House lawmakers can keep their focus.
A week ago, as House Speaker Robert DeLeo made news of his imminent departure public, Governor Charlie Baker filed legislation aimed at saving businesses $1.3 billion over the next two years for their share of unemployment insurance taxes. That's no small chunk of change — and not only could it save money, but it could also enhance the prospect of companies growing (or at least not cutting) their workforces at a time when people desperately need jobs.
Georgia Senate Candidates Need To Address Taxes
Although controversial at the time, the Republican tax reform bill passed by Congress almost four years ago promised benefits for almost all American families.
Who gains when you lower corporate taxes? Economists aren't entirely sure, but a body of evidence suggests that it is the workers. More capital means improved productivity and that makes workers more valuable to employers. Studies show that countries with low corporate taxes attract capital and that leads to higher wages.
