As 2009 comes to an end, it is time to start thinking about your tax return. Sandy Beehive Credit Union wants our members to be aware of some issues that may affect Salt Lake City tax filers.

New Car Sales Tax Deduction
Even if you missed Cash for Clunkers, there are good reasons to buy a new car now. You can deduct state, local and excise taxes for new cars, light trucks, motorcycles and motorhomes purchased before December 31, 2009. Sandy Beehive Credit Union can get you a great rate on an auto loan now, so don’t delay. 2010 is just around the corner!

Green Tax Credits
If you have made green improvements to your home in 2009, you can claim a tax credit. If you haven’t, don’t worry; it’s not too late. This credit will continue for the 2010 tax year. If you need financing to pay for energy upgrades, Sandy Beehive Credit Union can help with a home equity loan or signature loan. Call 801-484-8811 to talk to a neighborly loan specialist about which type of loan would work best for you.
