Carry Forward with Hunter is a teaching channel and this is its home on the web: plain-English lessons on U.S. federal tax, one idea at a time. Every lesson ends with one sentence to carry forward. Here you can watch each video with its transcript and sources, read the companion article, try a short quiz, and play a desk game set in a small CPA office.

I make it because tax rules are easier to follow when someone says them plainly and shows where they come from. And because a quiz about withholding is more fun than it has any right to be.

Every figure on this site comes from a verified parameter library built from IRS and statutory sources, or from a primary source cited right next to it. Each page shows the date its figures were checked and the date they are due for review. When that date passes, the page says so in red pen until I re-check it. How I check facts, and the corrections log.

It is not advice for your situation, and it is not a way to become a client. I cannot answer questions about your own facts, here or in the comments, and I never say who is or is not a client. Watching, reading, quizzing or playing here does not create a CPA-client relationship.
