Dr. Tax Refund® — Tax Strategy Library

This is the tax-and-law nerd corner of Keep Asking How™—where I talk shop with other professionals about real IRS rules, retirement tax strategy, cross-border issues, and long-term care planning.  If you’re a tax pro, attorney, financial planner, or a very determined DIYer, this is where you’ll find the nitty-gritty.

Why Trust DR. TAX REFUND®?

Who’s behind Dr. Tax Refund®

I’m Brad Biren, JD, LL.M., a tax and elder law attorney turned trauma-aware financial coach and founder of Keep Asking How™. My work lives at the intersection of: 

  • Retirement and long-term care planning (including Medicaid and estate recovery),
  • Cross-border tax and U.S. citizens living or retiring abroad,
  • Employer benefits, HSAs/FSAs, and tax-smart compensation,
  • Big life changes like disability, divorce, caregiving, and late-in-life career shifts.

I’ve been quoted or featured as a subject-matter expert in outlets including:
Forbes (future of money and banking)
The New York Times (creative hiatus and sabbaticals)
Yahoo! Finance and GoBankingRates (wealth behavior and money mindset)
Care.com (Medicaid and elder debt relief)
Iowa Bar Association and University of Iowa College of Law (tax, disability, and ethical innovation)
Iowa Public Radio and AUCD (neurodiversity, disability policy, and systems design).
