Do I need to keep expenses to a minimum for loan approval?

I am self employed and I had a problem with my tax docs when I filed the last time. I made around $50k last year and after I wrote off expenses the total amount came out that I only made only $15k for the year. This year I am on track to make $75k and I have not paid my tax returns yet. Do I keep my expenses to a minimum? by unreal184 from Greensboro, Alabama. Mar 8th 2022 Reply
