Blog—September 9, 2025-9-10---Tax Talk -Tim Ness—Show 49-63
Once a month---Tim Ness---Voted Sioux Falls BEST TAX and BOOKKEPING service 20 years in a row—answers all the changes that are happening ---it is indeed a show---I learn something, the audience learns something---and it keeps you updated on the changes being made by IRS----and other so-called bean counters----
One thing for sure with Tim Ness---he has the experience working with the IRS---- and with people for 2 decades here in South Dakota-and before that---Minnesota.
Among the topics ---the September 30th date that is approaching from the IRS---that checks will no longer be excepted. He shared how you can (and must) pay the IRS in the future---credit card certainly one of them.
He shares the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill”----takes time to understand it and review—and Mr. Ness does show in each of the last 3 or 4 monthly shows.
Of course it makes sense if you are leaning one particular way—but if you aren’t and are worried—politicians have already decided you don’t really matter---then you look at it differently. But Mr. Ness does talk about the Bill in the show—and my job is to keep it as even-handed as I can. Something I try to do with every issue.
Among other topics discussed—the IRS keeping you walking the straight and narrow----particularly with gambling that you aren’t claiming.
Tim talked about the students back in school---working jobs---and then being responsible for taxes in that particular state.
Mr. Ness and team---do state income taxes for people who need help. Of course South Dakota doesn’t have a State Income Tax--- but they have the books to help you with income in those other states that do have a State Income Tax. Interesting how they can do that---and make sure those living in South Dakota---are protected from other jurisdictions.
We mentioned September 30th---as the last day you can pay the IRS in checks---September 15th is the date that S-corp and Partnership returns are due to the government.
Tim Ness---takes calls---in our show---sometimes they come or sometimes callers get bashful on the air—and give the question information to Norm to share with Tim and for me to ask.
Our It’s YOUR Business Shows---including the Tax Talk with Tim Ness is a live broadcast---with Talented Tim Talking Taxes ---he understands and I don’t think there is a question he doesn’t understand.
Listen live to the show at 1320, 105.1, 107.9—use the KELO-App—Streaming on Line or just ask Alexa. Norm Anderson posts the show as a podcast---my job is to schedule the guests with Mr. Ness---and help the audience to understand what they are hearing and why it is important and write this blog.
