Houston tax expert shares tax tips to help max your money in 2025

HOUSTON – It is that time of the year. The days are getting longer, spring is in the air, and the tax filing deadline is just around the corner. For entrepreneur and tax practitioner, Ms. Noris Hernandez of NH Tax Services, this is her favorite time of the year.

As an inspiring female entrepreneur, Hernandez is passionate about her work. She has won multiple professional awards and is listed in the Marquis “Who’s Who of America.” With over 15 years in the industry and eight years running her own business, she brings a wealth of experience to her clients.

Hernandez finds immense satisfaction in her role as a tax practitioner. “I love what I do,” she says. “It’s rewarding to see the smile of every taxpayer when they come to the office.” Her approach focuses on understanding her clients’ financial goals and working with them throughout the year, not just during tax season.

Her commitment to the community is evident in the discounts she offers to first responders, nurses, firefighters, and teachers. “I actually give them a discount starting from $75 up to $200 off,” she explains. Since founding her company in 2017, she has maintained her dedication to serving the community.

One notable success story involves a retired teacher who faced a $100,000 IRS debt. Hernandez says she was able to turn a notice of deficiency into a refund, highlighting the importance of staying current with tax laws. “If the tax practitioner doesn’t stay current in tax law, that’s going to cost the taxpayer,” she warns.

With new administrations often bringing changes to tax laws, Hernandez emphasizes the importance of staying informed.

Her top tax tips for 2025 include:

  • Maximizing retirement contributions
  • Taking advantage of tax credits – like the child tax credit
  • Reviewing and adjusting withholding tax
  • Considering tax-advantaged accounts for college savings

She also advises business owners to keep meticulous records and to consult with a tax professional year-round. You can take a more in-depth look at these tips in the video above.

For  Hernandez, tax season is a year-long endeavor. She is always available to guide her clients, both individuals and businesses, in making informed tax choices. Her ability to serve a diverse clientele, including both English and Spanish speakers, is a source of pride. “The passion is there every day,” she says. “I love helping taxpayers every single day when they’re in my office.”
