HOW TO HANDLE FINANCES & WRITE OFF YOUR JOB SEARCH EXPENSES

Presented by: Melissa Osuch, CFEd™, Financial Advisor, Strategic Advisors of Illinois

Attending a session on finances while you are unemployed certainly doesn’t sound appealing. Arming yourself with knowledge on what resources can be tapped with the least penalty, simple ways to cut expenses, and how to protect yourself during transition can alleviate some of the burden you are feeling. Melissa is vested in helping you learn what you CAN do while in transition to improve your financial health and prioritize your financial goals and avoid scams. As a timely bonus, Melissa will clarify what job search expanses can be deducted on your tax return.
