One example is reviewing income, deductions, investment structures, and expected tax obligations before year-end rather than waiting until filing season. For an eligible investor, that review may include examining whether qualifying Intangible Drilling Costs or depletion deductions fit their circumstances. Tax treatment depends on the investment, taxpayer, and applicable rules, so a qualified tax professional should evaluate any proposed strategy.
