It's tax season crunch time, so we are resharing a timely episode debunking the 1120-S tax return. In this episode, Brian will walk you through the S-Corporation income tax return to help you better understand what you're filing and hopefully catch mistakes before it's too late. He provides a section-by-section analysis of Form 1120-S and highlights key areas that business owners and tax professionals make mistakes. Episode Highlights Part 1: Heading, Income, Deductions, Tax and Payments Most of this information is drawn from your business's Profit and Loss Statement. Here's a breakdown of what's on the first page: Calendar year: The very top of the form asks for the calendar year. If the corporation has a calendar year-end, leave this blank. If a fiscal year or short year put in the appropriate dates. Address: Underneath the calendar year, the form asks for a name and address. Use the name set forth in the charter or other legal documents, such as your Employer Identification Number (EIN) letter. Item A: Located to the left of the address, Item A asks for your S election effective date. You should have a letter from the IRS (CP 261) with your S-Corp starting date. This date should stay the same every year. Item B: Your business activity code. This code shows the IRS exactly what you do. Item C: Item C only applies if you have assets of $10 million or more. Most of the time, Item C will not be checked. Item D: Put your EIN in Item D. Make sure to verify it's correct before you file your form. Item E: Your date of incorporation should match the articles of incorporation. This date may or may not be the same date as your S-election. Like the S-election date, the date of incorporation won't change. Item F: Total assets at the end of the year. Item G: If the corporation is electing to be an S-Corp beginning with the current filing tax year, check the appropriate box. If the S-Corp did not already file the S-Election, attach Form 2553 with the return. Item H: These boxes should be self-explanatory. Check the boxes that apply. Item I: Enter the number of shareholders in the firm (e.g. yourself and your partners). Item J: Most of the time, Item J will not be checked. If you believe that one of the Item J items applies, follow up with your tax accountant. Income: Report gross revenue your business has earned for the year and any additional income or interest income that you may have incurred. Only report trade or business income. Do not list rental income, portfolio income, or tax exempt income (those go on your Schedule K). Expenses: Report all deductions on your Profit and Loss statement. Pay special attention to the following lines: Line 7: Compensation of officers should have something on it. S-Corporations must pay shareholder/employee reasonable compensation for services rendered, and failing to put reasonable compensation could lead to an IRS audit. Also included on this line are fringe benefits, including employer contributions to health plans and group term life insurance, for shareholders/employees owning more than 2% of the corporation stock. If your S-Corp has total receipts of $500,000 or more, you'll need to attach Form 1125-E to explain what was paid to each officer. Line 8: Salary and wages paid to employees (other than officers) of the corporation. Line 17: An S-Corporation can deduct contributions made for its employees under a qualified pension, profit sharing, annuity, SEP plan, Simple plan, or any other retirement deferred compensation plan. This includes shareholders/employees owning more than 2% of the corporation stock. Line 18: Employee fringe benefits provided to officers and employees owning less than 2% go on this line, such as health insurance, disability insurance, and educational assistance. Line 19: Line 19 includes any other deductions. There should be an attached statement, and it should match your profit and loss. The numbers should be close to your Profit and Loss statement. Taxes and payments: In general, an S-Corporation does not pay taxes at the corporate level, so this section will be blank. Signature: It's important to sign the return only after verifying all of the information, including the following sections. Part 2: Schedule B This section is mostly self-explanatory questions. Make sure to read and understand each question. Below are two lines to pay special attention to: Box 1: This easy-to-miss box can change your entire return if you're not careful, since it's where you select whether you're a cash or accrual basis taxpayer. Once you choose an accounting method, you generally cannot change without approval from the IRS. Box 2: Here is where you explain what you do. Part B is an either/or question, so state whether you sell products or services. Also, if you hire contractors, say yes to question 14 -- and hopefully you got out your 1099 forms by January 31. Part 3: Schedules K and K-1 Schedule K reports the pro rata share items in total for the Corporation. Schedule K-1, which you receive in your personal name, reports the percentage of pro rata share items allocable to each shareholder.  Lines 1-17 on Schedule K correspond to Boxes 1-17 on Schedule K-1. Most items on Schedules K and K-1 are self-explanatory and come from other parts of the return. Part 4: Schedule L  This is where many taxpayers make a mistake. Schedule L matches your business' balance sheet and should agree with your books and records. If it doesn't, find out why before you file. The first two columns match what your accounts were at the beginning of the year and should match what the accounts were at the end of last year. If this is your first year filing an 1120-S return, these two columns should be blank. The second two columns are for what the accounts had on December 31 of the previous year and will carry over to next year's return. Some of the most common assets on Schedule L are: Line 1: Write the amount of cash in your bank account on the last day of the year. Line 7: Loans to shareholders are loans from the corporation to the shareholder. Keep in mind, these loans need to be documented and should have a repayment schedule and interest rate. Line 10a: Buildings and other depreciable assets are fixed assets that the business owns that have been depreciated, such as real estate, furniture, or machinery  Some of the most common liabilities on Schedule L are: Line 18: Other current liabilities are expenses incurred at the end of the year but not paid until January of the next year. Current expenses often include wages, state taxes, federal taxes, and payroll taxes payable at the end of the year.  Line 19: Loans from shareholders are loans from the shareholder to the corporation. As with the other loans, these loans should be documented and include a repayment schedule and interest rate. Line 22: The par value or stated value of the capital stock issued by the corporation. This amount stays the same each year unless the S-Corporation issues additional stock after incorporation. The corporate charter or minutes should identify the stock. Line 23: Enter the beginning and ending balances of additional paid-in capital. This includes the amount contributed to the S-Corp by shareholders for which the corporation did not issue stock or amounts contributed in excess of the stated or par value. Line 24: This section is especially tricky. You should base the retained earnings on the S-Corporation's books and records. Most of the time, retained earnings should match the Accumulated Adjustments Account (AAA), other adjustments account (OAA), and previously taxed income (PTI) balances on Schedule M-2. Line 27: This line represents the total liability and shareholders equity. This line must match line 15. If you answered “yes” to question 11 on Schedule B that your total receipts were less than $250,000 and total assets were less than $250,000, then you aren't required to file a Schedule L. However, it may be beneficial to file Schedule L anyway because it will be crucial for future balance sheets. Part 5: Schedules M-1 and M-2 Schedule M-1 helps explain discrepancies between the books and your tax return. This section should explain any differences you notice.  Some common items reported on Schedule M-2 include: Meal expenses (100% on books, 50% on taxes) Entertainment (100% on books, 0% on taxes) Life insurance premium expense (100% on books, 0% on taxes) Certain fines and penalties (100% on books, 0% on taxes) Political contributions (100% on books, 0% on taxes) Book depreciation expense (100% on books, 0% on taxes) Tax depreciation expense (%0 on books, 100% on taxes) Tax-exempt income (100% on books, %0 on taxes)  Schedule M-2 tracks the income and losses and separately states items that the shareholder should report on their tax return.

Federal Income Tax Lecture 3: Advanced Topics, Strategies, and Exam-Focused Review

This third lecture expands on prior lessons about Federal Income Tax by delving into more complex issues, the strategic use of tax rules, and practical exam-oriented approaches. It begins by recalling the foundational principles—gross income, deductions, credits, and reporting—then shows how these concepts apply at a deeper level.A key section addresses business entities and how their choice affects federal taxation. Sole proprietorships are reported on an individual's tax return (Schedule C), whereas partnerships and multi-member LLCs pass profits and losses through to partners, who then file informational returns and get Schedule K-1 forms. S corporations, requiring a special election, also pass income through but may help certain owner-employees split compensation between salary (subject to payroll tax) and distributions (not subject to self-employment tax). C corporations are taxed at the corporate level and may trigger “double taxation” when earnings are distributed as dividends.Moving on, the lecture explores tax planning and distinguishes it from illegal tax evasion. Legitimate planning may involve deferring income, characterizing gains as capital instead of ordinary, or selecting an entity structure that reduces the combined tax burden. However, transactions without economic substance or aimed solely at generating artificial losses cross into forbidden territory, raising red flags for the IRS under doctrines like “substance over form” or “economic substance.”The lecture highlights special planning considerations such as the timing of deductions and income, the use of Net Operating Losses (NOLs) to offset future (or past) taxable income, and how estate and gift taxation interplay with income tax (e.g., basis step-ups for inherited property). This discussion emphasizes how tax law's annual accounting framework can be leveraged—through year-end strategies, for example—to manage a taxpayer's marginal rates.A substantial part of the lecture focuses on exam strategy. Students learn to methodically identify the type of income (wages, capital gains, pass-through K-1 amounts) and check for relevant exclusions, permissible deductions, and potential credits. They must verify whether specialized rules (like depreciation recapture or the Alternative Minimum Tax) arise, and see if a business expense is legitimate or a personal cost disguised as a deduction. Clear IRAC-style writing is recommended: state the Issue, the governing Rule (citing relevant Code sections or doctrines), apply the facts carefully, then conclude.An extended hypothetical ties these advanced topics together, showing how owners in a partnership or LLC might claim or lose deductions, track basis, or consider an S corp election. By analyzing such scenarios step by step—determining entity-level vs. individual taxation, differentiating legitimate business expenses from personal ones, and weighing additional complexities like basis or recapture—students refine their abilities to address multi-layered fact patterns.In closing, the lecture underscores that while earlier sessions covered fundamentals (formation, exclusions, deductions, and credits), these advanced concepts highlight the strategic dimension of tax law. By mastering how business entities differ, how lawful planning can reduce taxes, and how to identify unscrupulous maneuvers, students can confidently tackle intricate exam questions. The central theme is to remain systematic and fact-driven, ensuring that each transaction meets the relevant legal requirements.

This is Ron Cohen. I'm a tax partner with the firm of Greenstein, Rogoff, Olsen & Co., LLP and we're located in beautiful downtown Fremont, California. I appreciate you signing in to listen to my self-indulgent, and sometimes narcissistic comments about the tax system. No Reliance: Take no reliance on anything you hear on this podcast. This is mostly for entertainment and education. In order to get an opinion from me or my firm you have to sign an engagement letter and give us all of the facts. After we do some research about your situation we'll come back and formally give you an opinion. And only then can you use that advice for purposes of entering into any transaction or filing a tax return. Plagiarism is Okay! Everything in the tax rules is from the Internal Revenue Code, its regulations, court cases, and various internal memorandums by the Internal Revenue Service. Lots of lawyers and CPAs write very good articles that we will often attach in the show notes. They are trying to show how smart they are to the public so everyone copies from everyone else, and I certainly want to give them credit. We're not writing any novels, nor creating deep or original thoughts here. No Politics We try to stay out of general politics, however tax law is developed through legislation in Congress and anything that's legislative has its own political ups and downs. And I feel free to comment on that. How I Help: Our firm does around 1400 tax returns for various people. The demographics range from little grandmothers all the way up to high tech executives and multinational corporations. We also specialize in family office services for wealthy groups with far flung entities and we also help those groups with things such as bill paying and taking care of their day-to-day financial operations No Cheerleader for the Tax System: Our tax system is intrusive, an invasion of privacy and it's tedious. You need to look at a 12 step flowchart to figure out in some cases whether you can take your mortgage interest deduction. It is part of the technocratic Administrative State that has built up in this country since World War Two, and I don't like it. Other countries have simplified the tax system in many ways, despite this we always try to get an A+ (not an A-, or a B, or a C) in our work and make sure it is accurate. Well prepared tax returns rarely get audited, and the best tax audit, is the one that never comes! Please let us know if there are specific topics you'd like to hear about in future episodes.

K-2 — isn't that a mountain? K2 is, but to tax professionals and with the hyphen, it's Partners' Distributive Share Items — International (and, for S corporations, a similar form), the new schedule filed with the returns of passthrough entities with “items of international tax relevance” and partners in foreign partnerships. Along with its “twin peak” of Schedule K-3, Partner's [or Shareholder's] Share of Income, Deductions, Credits, etc. — International, these formidable forms have been much discussed by CPAs and other tax practitioners lately. Here to help us better understand them is John Samtoy, CPA, who has written about Schedules K-2 and K-3 for the Tax Insider newsletter recently.

No, if you are retired, not working anywhere else, and spending a substantial amount of time working on rentals; depending on amount of losses, you may not have to be a REP Why would someone invest in a Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP)? How are they taxed? Is PTP a good option to invest in for diversity? Be careful, some PTPs are complex, but as far as traxation, there's nothing special about PTPs - look at them from an investment, not a tax perspective I have converted my primary home to a short-term rental (STR) this year.If I complete 100+ hours of material participation and more than anyone else, can I deduct the losses from my W-2 wages (active income)? Yes, but if it's rental income and you accelerate depreciation, you could lose your REP status I plan to donate my timeshare. Does that relieve me of my maintenance fee yearly? There are two types of timeshares - right to use and for deed; the nonprofit may use them personally, within the entity, or sell it to a third-party - know who is taking over the liability/responsibility of the asset For all questions/answers discussed, sign up to be a Platinum member to view the replay!

Did you miss the April 15 tax deadline? Are you safe from significant penalties? What’s the best way to legally, morally, and ethically not pay taxes? It depends. Jeff Webb, Tax Director, and Eliot Thomas, Senior Tax Advisor, of Anderson Advisors answer your tax questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors. Highlights/Topics: If you experience a one-time large capital gain from exercising stock options, is it absolutely imperative that you figure out quarterly payments to avoid penalty, and if so, what if you missed April? There’s a safe harbor for calculating tax estimates and it requires paying in 90% of the current year tax or 110% of the prior year tax; and estimated tax penalties are typical not significant, but handle missed payment soon What is the best way to take advantage of Section 179 for new vehicles over 6,000 pounds? Typically, most people do not use Section 179 because of bonus depreciation, restrictions, and limitations How are crypto currencies taxed, and what’s the best way to legally, morally, and ethically not pay taxes? Depends on how you are getting the crypto currency; if you are buying and selling, it is treated as a security and other rules apply; if you are mining crypto currency, find out the value of that crypto bitcoin the day it is created What will happen if you open an LLC with Corp status but you missed the deadline? What should you do? If you missed the tax deadline and have a loss on your Corp, it typically doesn’t affect you; if you have a lot of startup costs, you need to file your initial tax return on time Does tax on depreciation recapture, like capital gains, go away when property is inherited? When you inherit property, everything resets and goes away, like capital gains Do I have to report a home I lived in and sold even though I purchased a new home? Previous Section 121 states as long as you buy a more expensive home than the one you sold, you can defer any gain until the age of 55; Section 121 now states if you lived in the home for two of last five years, you can defer a large part or all the gain For all questions/answers discussed, sign up to be a Platinum member to view the replay!

Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors. Highlights/Topics: What are the requirements for being a real estate professional, and what are the benefits? Either you or your spouse must have 750 hours and greater than 50 percent of personal services in real estate, and both spouses must materially participate per property unless the aggregation election is selected; and the benefits are that you get to write off losses that you typically wouldn’t be able to write off as a landlord I have a fully depreciated rental in a high-tax state. Can I do a 1031 exchange and buy some farmland in a different state and not pay taxes to the high-tax state? Yes, temporarily, unless or until you sell the farmland property I have an S-Corp business. I hired my 12-year-old son to work and he gets a W-2 with an annual income of about $1,400. Does he need to file a tax return? If he does not file a tax return, will that increase my chances of getting an audit for my business? If your son makes less than the standard deduction, he does not need to file a tax return, and your business is unlikely to be audited Can I write off my monthly car payment if it’s financed and in my corporation’s name? Write off the expenses and interest, but depreciate the car if in the corporation's name; you may have more income from that vehicle than the vehicle is worth–track and reimburse your mileage I have a rental property that is owned by a self-directed IRA.

Are you smarter than your accountant, especially when they tell you there’s nothing they can do? Toby Mathis and Toni Covey of Anderson Advisors answer your tax questions to provide clarity and understanding. Do you have a tax question? Submit it to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.   Highlights/Topics:  I have an empty plot of land. If I sell it and have a loss, am I able to write-off the loss on my taxes? If treated as a capital loss because it’s a capital asset, the loss is deductible against any other capital gains or up to $3,000 of ordinary income Can you set up a hedge fund or other entity where you can trade your stocks, so you’re not taxed as long as the proceeds stay in the fund you created until they are reinvested? Hedge funds are usually operating in an LLC taxed to a partnership or limited partnership, which flows through owner’s tax return  Are there any strategies to reduce paying taxes on benefit or pension income and Social Security benefits? Distributions from a retirement plan are taxable income most of the time; Social Security benefits may/may not be taxable, depending on other income What are the tax benefits of setting up a charity? Charity doesn’t pay any tax and you can give it assets Can I use my self-directed IRA as a hard money lender? Yes, but you’re personally responsible for excess liabilities with an IRA  I was a passive real estate investor and I have passive activity losses (PALs). Now, I’m a real estate professional. Can I use those PALs against my ordinary income, if I’m a real estate professional? No, they’re suspended until you substantially dispose all the activity I’ve noticed that taxes on new construction properties are generally lower for a year or two before increasing. Why? Property taxes are based on assessed value of the home What are the limits for bonus depreciation? There are none; you can create $1 million worth of loss and not pay tax for a long time Does getting a disaster loan and PPP affect taxes?

On the Ninja Notes, in the partnership section it says the below:     Items not deductible on Schedule K         Instead these flow through the Partners' K-1:             Investment interest             Foreign taxes paid             Charitable contributions             179 expense But on an actual Schedule K those items are deducted. What am I missing? Gross Sales (Except for partners) (Accrual basis only) (payments to partners are OK) (except 179) = Ordinary Business Income ITEMS NOT DEDUCTIBLE ON SCHEDULE K Instead, these flow to Partners' K-1 o Investment Interest Expense o Foreign Tax Paid o Charitable Contributions o 179 Expense Mnemonic: IFC179 Instructions for Form 1065 Do not include any section 179 expense deduction on this line. This amount isn't deducted by the partnership. Instead, it is passed through to the partners in box 12 of Schedule K-1. Items the partnership must state separately that require separate computations by the partners. Examples include expenses incurred for the production of income instead of in a trade or business, charitable contributions, foreign taxes paid or accrued, intangible drilling and development costs, soil and water conservation expenditures, amortizable basis of reforestation expenditures, and exploration expenditures. The distributive shares of these expenses are reported separately to each partner on Schedule K-1. 2.Jared - I purchased Ninja MCQ for BEC and I have been doing the adaptive learning session. After 400+ questions, I have been seeing repeated questions, even repeated questions that I have answered right before. Should I just go to Custom MCQ and just select Questions that I have not yet seen? I don't want to stray away from what is recommended. 3. Rachel - Hi Jeff, I purchased the NINJA FAR book in Oct/Nov of 2016. ( i missed it by 4 points). Can I use this for the new CPA style or will you be updating you materials? Thanks 4. Shalini - I have only recently decided to pass the CPA exams. A friend lent me books from 2013. How redundant or useful are they? Some subjects more than others? 5. Juan - I will be taking the Regulation exam in 2 weeks and I am considering purchasing the ninja MCQ. However, I was wondering if I can still access the 2016 REG questions since my exam will consist of that material, or are only the 2017 questions provided? See Also: How to Pass a Section of the CPA Exam in 20 Days 6. Andrea - I failed one of the other sections of the CPA exam and I have to push Regulations back from March 10th to the first week of April. However when I’m on Prometric all the days in April, May and June are in light gray- so it won’t let me reschedule my exam. Then I saw an email from NASBA that said if you want to take BEC or REG on or after April 1, 2017 the earliest you can schedule is March 11, 2017. However if I’m scheduled to take Regs on March 10th and the earliest time we can schedule for Regs is March 11th, how can I reschedule it? If I select cancel exam on the Prometric website, will I have to pay for the exam all over again? 7.

This episode is a re-release of the AICPA Tax Briefing for State Society Leaders conference call that took place January 12 - 13, 2009. Below, please find a summary of the major points covered in the call. FIN 48—There are two important FASB requirements for accounting for uncertain tax positions of non-public companies that your firm needs to do right now, and as the tax person in your firm or business, you’ll undoubtedly be involved. On October 15, 2008, FASB deferred the effective date of FIN 48 (Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes) for all non-public companies for one year, until 2009 for calendar-year companies. However, that means that in January of 2009, calendar-year private companies should complete a FIN 48 analysis of their year-beginning tax positions so that they can record the effect of the change in accounting method at the end of 2009. This analysis could be “backed into” later in the year, but as time passes it will be more difficult to recall all tax positions (not just those that are unlikely) for all types of taxes for all open years in all jurisdictions and what the level of certainty and values were under the law at the beginning of the year. So if a company has not already done this analysis and if it wants to report in accordance with GAAP, the earlier it starts now, the better. Another new FASB requirement relates to 2008 financials and any interim 2009 financial statements. A FASB Staff Position (FSP) was issued on December 30 that added reporting requirements for private companies that elect to defer the effective date for the adoption of FIN 48. Specifically, they must explicitly disclose that they are electing to defer the effective date and also disclose the company’s accounting policy for evaluating uncertain tax positions. This applies to 2008 financials and interim 2009 financials, until FIN 48 is adopted. The FSP doesn’t discuss specifics, but unless a company has something unusual, we hope that some standard language will suffice, such as “Management has elected to defer the application of FAS FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions in accordance with FSP FIN 48-3. The Company will continue to follow FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, until it adopts FIN 48.” Additional information on FIN 48 for private companies is included in the February issue of The Tax Adviser magazine that most Tax Section members receive. Tax Practice Guides and Checklists—Tax section members receive an annual package of over 600 pages of engagement letters, organizers, checklists, and other practice guides, and they’re now posted online . These include return-specific checklists for preparing and reviewing tax returns. Some forms checklists come in simple and complex versions so that, for instance, you don’t have to use a complex individual return checklist for a child’s return. These practice guides are carefully prepared and reviewed by fellow practitioners for your use. They are up-to-date through the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, and subsequent developments will be reported in your Tax Section E-Alerts. In prior years, we sent a CD-ROM version of the checklists, but to avoid delays in scribing and mailing the CDs and with most members now having broadband internet, this year we’re only distributing the checklists. You’ll have to log on and be recognized as a tax section member to access this premium web content, and if you’re not a member, you can join online at aicpa.org/tax or on the phone at 800/513-3037. Each document may be downloaded to your computer directly allowing you to use any or all of the Practice Guides and checklists at your convenience and without requiring you to be logged on to the AICPA web site. A “one click” option allows you to download the entire package in a few moments directly to your computer. Audio E-Alerts—Tax Section member receive bi-weekly emailed e-alerts that report current developments in tax law and practice. This emailed alert is necessarily brief and to the point, and we’re beginning expanded version in bi-weekly audio e-alerts that can be uploaded to your MP3 player or listened to online. Each alert will be approximately 15-20 minutes in length and can be accessed online. These audio alerts are available to AICPA members without charge, but they do not contain the links to the source documents that are included in the emailed version that goes to Tax Section members. These audio alerts may be of particular interest to younger staff and will help them become more knowledgeable about current tax developments. SSTS Exposure Draft—The AICPA Tax Division recently issued an Exposure Draft of revisions to the Statements on Standards for Tax Services (SSTSs). The draft addresses changes in federal and state tax laws affecting the provisions in SSTS No. 1, Tax Return Positions, and No. 8, Form and Content of Advice to Taxpayers, and also members’ requests for clarification. Corresponding revisions to the current SSTS Interpretations will be made at a later date. Revisions to SSTS No. 1 are proposed to clarify the need to satisfy both the AICPA standards and the standards of the applicable taxing authority. Revisions to SSTS No. 8 are proposed to address new requirements that apply when providing certain types of tax advice. In addition, the original SSTS Nos. 6 and 7 have been combined into the revised SSTS No. 6. The original SSTS No. 8 has been renumbered SSTS No. 7. Various revisions also have been made to the language of the original SSTSs. AICPA members are welcome to comment on the exposure draft, with comments due by May 15, 2009. Please send your comments to sstscomments@aicpa.org or to SSTS Comments, AICPA, 1455 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20004-1081. Section 6694 Penalties—The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 lowered the reporting standard under section 6694 to “substantial authority” from “more likely than not” for undisclosed, non-tax shelter positions. This is the same standard that applies to taxpayers. The change is retroactive to the date when the higher standard was enacted, May 25, 2007. This is a great victory for CPAs that the AICPA had been fighting for since Congress raised the standard for preparers to a level higher than for taxpayers, creating potential conflicts of interest between CPAs and their clients. Section 7216 Final Regs—IRS regulations on the unauthorized disclosure of tax return information went into effect on January 1. Absent a specific, exception, Treas. Reg. section 301.7216 generally prohibits the disclosure or use of tax return information without the client’s explicit, written consent. Under section 7216, a tax return preparer is subject to a criminal penalty for “knowingly or recklessly” disclosing or using tax return information. Each violation of section 7216 could result in a fine of up to $1,000 or one year imprisonment, or both. AICPA members who are engaged in tax return preparation and tax planning services need to become familiar with Treas. Reg. section 301.7216 and Revenue Procedure 2008-35, the authoritative guidance with respect to a preparer’s disclosure or use of tax return information. In a practice guide for members, the Tax Section is providing several examples of consent forms which have been developed by CPA members for their discussions or consultations with individual clients. 1099B Forms Coming Two Weeks Later—The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 extended the date by which brokers must furnish information forms to customers. This includes stock broker 1099-B forms and also other forms from brokers, including realtors. Beginning with statements furnished in 2009, brokers will avoid penalties if they furnish these forms on or before February 15 – as opposed to the old due date of January 31. This could further compress the return preparation season for practitioners. Form 1065 Extended Due Date—Last year, the Tax Division held discussions with IRS concerning the dilemma of the late receipt of Forms 1065, Schedule K-1 that has perplexed the clients of CPAs who prepare the Form 1040, 1065, 1120 and 1120S tax returns which include such K-1 information. On January 24, 2008, we recommended, as a short-term solution, that the Service open a regulation project to: (1) address the difficulties taxpayers face when receiving delayed Schedules K-1 and (2) move the extended due date for partnership returns from October 15 to September 15, thus providing a maximum extension of five months. On July 1, 2008, the IRS released proposed regulations which would, in fact, limit certain flow-through entities to a maximum 5-month extension. The Service has indicated that the proposed regulations won’t be finalized until they have had an opportunity to analyze any comments submitted. On September 24, 2008, the Tax Division submitted comments with regard to the impact on trusts. The AICPA generally supports limiting the extension of the due date for partnership returns to five months. However, our prior letter and comments did not consider the issue of the proper extended due date for fiduciary returns because we were primarily focusing on the filing problems created for individuals who are partners in partnerships. We believe that the extension period for fiduciary returns (i.e., Form 1041 for trusts and estates) should remain at six months, rather than being reduced to five months as set forth in the temporary regulations applicable to all returns which are due after January 1, 2009. The Division will be testifying at the IRS hearing on the proposed regulations on January 13, 2009. In addition, the Division is also considering suggesting possible legislative changes in this area taking into account our members’ attitudes as solicited in a survey earlier this year. Also, on October 29, 2008 representatives of the Partnership TRP met with the Joint Committee on Taxation a possible change to due dates and/or extended due dates of Forms 1065, 1040, 1120S and 1041 to relieve workload compression and to better manage the workflow of these returns. State Taxation of Nonresidents—The ACIPA has been closely monitoring a Congressional initiative that would affect the ability of states to tax nonresidents temporarily working within their jurisdiction. Currently the states that have an individual income tax have a wide variety of tipping points. Some do not impose taxes on nonresidents until they have worked as many as 30 days within the state; others seem to require only a day or two. This has resulted in much confusion and probably significant non compliance for businesses, such as many accounting firms that frequently have employees working in states where the employer does not have an office. A bi-partisan bill was introduced in the last congress that would have required all states to conform to a 60-day rule such that the non resident employee would not be subject to tax within the state until the employee completed more than 60 days of service within the state in a calendar year. Included in the bill was what we refer to as the “snap back” rule whereby, once the 60 days was exceed, the employer was responsible for withholding the non resident state taxes for all the days worked with the state, including the first 60 days. In response to pressure from state taxing authorities, in the final days of the 110th Congress the 60 day rule was lowered to 30 days while still preserving the Snap back” provision. We believe there is a strong possibility that the 111th Congress take up where they left off last session and pass the 30 day with snap back version. Although we would have preferred the 60 day rule or even the 30 day rule without the snap back, this measure would add a much needed level of certainty in the area of state taxation of non residents. Pension Legislation Changes—At the end of the year, Congress passed the “Worker, Retiree and Employer Recovery Act of 2008)” which liberalized the funding rules for single and multi-employer qualified retirement plans and the minimum required distribution rules (MRDs) for retirees who have reached age 70 ½. The bill also makes technical corrections to the “Pension Protection Act of 2006” (PPA ’06) Specifically, the bill would • Allow pension plans to smooth out unexpected asset losses over two years; • Provide a transition to the new funding rules; • Allow multiemployer plans to freeze their status based on the previous year’s funding level; • Allow pension plans that are less than 60 percent funded at the beginning of 2009 to look back to the previous plan year to ascertain their funding status; and • Suspend mandatory withdrawals from retirement plans or IRAs for individuals age 70 ½ or older during 2009. The Treasury Department and IRS plan to issue MRD relief for 2008 very soon. The changes were needed because of the confluence of PPA ’06 mandated minimum contribution increases with the current economic crisis. We are also considering advocating additional changes; we will survey members in business and industry to try to determine if they anticipate continuing funding difficulties. Obama Tax Agenda Although this is necessarily speculative, we tried to pull together some of the common denominators of what President Obama spoke about in his campaign and his economic advisors have been saying since the election. Following are our predications at this moment: • Estate tax – freeze 2009 – i.e. $3.5 mil exclusion and 45% marginal rate. AICPA is fighting for: o “portability” loosely defined as permitting a surviving spouse to “inherit” whatever portion of the exclusion was not consumed by the deceased spouse o “conformity” so that the same exclusion would apply for purposes of the gift tax and the generation skipping transfer tax • Marginal rates for individuals – no increase in 2009 and perhaps not for 2010 unless there is a significant recovery in the economy before then. o Some reduction in payroll taxes for lower and middle income individuals to be effective in 2009 as a stimulus to the economy o Once the economy has “sufficiently” recovered we are expecting the Administration to proposed increasing the rates on upper income individuals to those in place before the reductions of 2001 raising the top rate back to 39.6% • We expect a proposal to increase the rates for qualified dividends and long term capital gains to 20%. But this, too, may not be proposed until it appears we’re on the way to an economic recovery. • Individuals with IRAs may be able to avoid penalties if they withdraw, before age 59 ½ , some level of funds ($10,000 has been talked about) to tie them over the economic slump. • For businesses, the new president has supported a continuation of the bonus deprecation rules and the ability to currently expense as much as $250,000 of asset purchased and placed in service in 2009
