Tax moves that matter most for Nevada
Nevada has no state income tax, so SALT cap concerns are limited to property tax. Optimization focus shifts to federal: 401(k), Mega Backdoor Roth, HSA, S-Corp election for self-employed.
At net SE income above ~$80k-$100k, electing S-Corp typically saves $5k-$15k/yr in self-employment tax — the math is largely federal but affects Nevada state tax via PTET (if applicable).
If you have 1099 income, Solo 401(k) lets you contribute up to $70,000/yr (2025) — far more than SEP-IRA in most cases. Reduces both federal and Nevada state income tax.
