Today we are speaking with Amber Gray-Fenner about tax myths!
Amber is the owner of Tax Therapy, LLC in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She inherited her tax practice in 2010 and considers herself a tax “general practitioner.” Amber is an Enrolled Agent and a non-attorney member of the bar of the U.S. Tax Court. In 2019 Amber completed the 72 hours of specialized training necessary to become a Fellow of the National Tax Practice Institute.
Amber has been a member of the EA Journal editorial board and is a contributing tax writer for Forbes.com and ThinkOutsideTheTaxBox.com. In 2020 and 2021 Amber was selected as one of the Top 100 Must Follow Tax Twitter Accounts by Kelly Phillips Erb, “The Tax Girl.”
Amber was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada, and has a Bachelor of Arts in English from UNLV. When she’s not doing “the work thing” Amber knits, crochets, and makes her own yarn. She also enjoys gardening, cooking, and reading. In other words, when she’s not working in her home office, you can usually find her working at home.
Amber doesn’t do accounting!
While there is a litany of tax myths out there, we touch upon the ones that most grind our gears, amongst which are employing your kids, auto and mileage deductions, bookkeeping mistakes that may cost you at tax time, and letting the tax tail wag the dog.
Let it be known that social media in general has made the IRS’ “dirty dozen” list of scams. While one may think it’s ok to rely on Tik Tok for tax advice, we know that social media doesn’t lend itself well to tax advice, because it’s nuanced and also, the person on social media platforms bears no responsibility for what they tell you, while your trusted tax professional does!
