Good News from the IRS
IRS proposed regulations provide that a payment made by a pass-through business to Georgia GOAL for a designated school like Benedictine may qualify for an ordinary and necessary business expense deduction, even where the owners receive a state income tax credit for the payment.
Businesses can deduct payments relevant to their trade or business that are made with the reasonable expectation of financial return commensurate with (but, according to the IRS, not necessarily equal to) the amount of the payment. The business expense deduction reduces the taxable net income of the pass-through business owner at the federal level, resulting in federal tax savings.
Your participation in the GOAL program makes a remarkable impact on deserving families and on the overall financial health of our school.
