Your Partner in Delegation

You’ve done it all. Built your business, clawed your way into the green, pulled every lever you could pull. And you did it all by digging in.

But now? Your work days creep later and later. Big plans get pushed one more day. The urgent task always wins over the important one.

You’ve reached capacity. It’s not about working harder now. It’s about growing smarter.

BELAY’s Delegate to Elevate eBook shows how to break through the ceiling by letting go of the tasks holding you back. You’ll discover the mindset shift and strategies successful entrepreneurs use to free up time and focus on scaling.

It’s the tipping point: delegate to elevate — or stay stuck.

Accountants Gone Wild

IRS Shutdown and Taxation Laws Cause Major Filing Disruptions

Tax leaders warn of a “perfect storm” this 2026 filing season as the shutdown, retroactive OBBB provisions, and IRS changes are now harboring. CERCA experts notice delays, confusion over “no tax on overtime/tips,” and state conformity issues, worsened by limited IRS staffing.

Tax refunds and compliance problems loom as paper checks phases out, student loan offsets resume, and Form 1099-DA debuts for digital assets. Although Treasury’s Ken Kies assures government recovery plans, experts fear one of the most chaotic U.S. tax seasons yet.

Peace was restored after a last-minute deal—but for a chaotic week, Canada learned that even tax systems can’t function without number crunchers.

Because “pivot tables” were just for warm-ups.
