ode of Tax Tuesday, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a diverse range of tax questions from viewers. They explore the differences between PadSplit/co-living models and short-term rentals, explaining why PadSplit typically doesn't qualify for the same tax advantages as short-term rental activities. The duo covers entity formation costs and how they're treated for disregarded LLCs, the importance of proper documentation for independent contractor payments including W-9 forms and 1099 requirements, and cryptocurrency taxation for long-term holders. They also discuss offsetting bond interest with stock losses, wash sale rules for options trading, 1031 exchange strategies including improvement exchanges to minimize boot taxation, and comprehensive guidance on real estate professional status requirements. The episode concludes with settling a marital dispute about whether primary residence maintenance counts toward real estate professional status hours. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "Are the fees for disregarded LLCs taxable on the business return or the personal return?" - Fees follow the entity's disregarded destination and activity type. "Will the PadSplit/co-living model give you the same tax advantage as a short-term rental?" - No, PadSplit typically doesn't qualify for short-term rental benefits. "Last year I purchased a three-level eight-bedroom house with one kitchen and one bathroom on each floor. I rent the floors as separate apartments except for one level where I have two rooms rented separately. I put the house in service on January 25. I listed it as my primary residence. I never actually lived there. Can I perform a cost segregation, take advantage of bonus depreciation, et cetera?" - Yes for cost seg, but homestead fraud concerns exist. "I paid freelancers to put up a fence last year. I didn't get a receipt. Can I write off any of the costs of this fence? I used my company credit card or bank checks to conduct business with vendors and stores. I am bad at keeping receipts. But I print my bank statements. Can I use my statements as proof of purchase for tax purposes?" - Bank statements help but proper W-9s and 1099s are required. "I will be receiving profits from the sale of cryptocurrency investments that I've had for five years. I'm retired and receive social security as my only income. How will this crypto be gained from an IRS perspective?" - Taxed as capital gains, likely at fifteen percent rate. "Can interest gained on a US savings bond be offset with the loss on a stock sale for tax purposes?" - Yes, up to three thousand annually against ordinary income. "If I sell a stock at a loss and purchase calls instead, do I lose my loss benefit as if I had repurchased more stock within the 30 day period? Or in simpler terms, are calls treated the same as stock?" - Yes, calls typically trigger wash sale rule provisions. "We did a 1031 exchange with the building we own, but the place that we bought the replacement property was 250,000 cheaper. How do we minimize our capital gains on the leftover money? I know we can use capital improvements that we've made, but what are the rules and how must we document the improvements? Likewise, can we use depreciation schedules from the prior returns for the new tax returns?" - improvement exchanges must occur during exchange. "I wanna know more about the tests for real estate professional status as a way to deduct expenses from other passive income. I understand that I need 750 hours, but this is very loose and I'm not sure how it is audited exactly." - 750 hours plus fifty percent test, requires detailed documentation. "Please settle this one thing that my husband and I disagree on, I say that maintenance on our primary residence cannot be used towards rep status. He says certain things you could count towards reps would be pool maintenance, HVAC service, et cetera. I say no because it's a primary residence and reps is strictly for time you spend on rentals only. I'd like him to not have to sleep on the couch any longer." - No, personal residence maintenance doesn't count toward business hours.

This Day in Legal History: ABA FormedOn August 21, 1878, 75 lawyers convened in Saratoga Springs, New York, and formally established the American Bar Association (ABA). Their shared aim was to advance the “science of jurisprudence,” promote uniform legislation, strengthen justice administration, uphold the profession's honor, and encourage collegial interaction among lawyers. Their organizing document—the original constitution—still shapes the ABA's mission today.Over time, the ABA became the premier professional association for attorneys in the U.S., influencing national legal education, ethics, and law reform. It introduced the first national ethics code in 1908 (the Canons of Professional Ethics), which eventually evolved into today's Model Rules of Professional Conduct.While the ABA once counted about 400,000 dues-paying members, by the low‑point of 2019, it had lost approximately 56,000 members—a symptom of shifting professional norms and changing perceptions of organizational value. Membership has continued to decline, with figures dropping as low as 227,000 by 2024. In response, the ABA has implemented membership reforms and reduced dues tiers to attract and re-engage lawyers, especially those early in their careers.The American Bar Association's recent actions reflect a mixed record in the face of escalating political pressure—particularly from the Trump administration and its allies. On one hand, the ABA has forcefully resisted efforts to erode legal independence: in 2025, it filed a federal lawsuit accusing the administration of intimidating law firms engaged in politically sensitive representation, and it criticized the DOJ's move to exclude the ABA from vetting judicial nominees as a blow to transparency and professionalism. It also defended its longstanding role in law school accreditation amid efforts to strip that authority.On the other hand, the ABA's decision in August 2025 to eliminate five Board of Governors seats historically reserved for women, LGBTQ+ individuals, people with disabilities, and racial minorities marks a notable concession under pressure. The newly adopted policy opens these seats to anyone with a demonstrated commitment to diversity, regardless of their own demographic identity. While proponents framed the shift as a legal safeguard against lawsuits, critics viewed it as a capitulation—especially given the broader political context, including targeted attacks on ABA diversity programs and threats to its accreditation authority. The organization has also paused enforcement of its law school diversity standards until at least 2026.The Justice Department under the Trump administration has dramatically escalated its investigation into gender-affirming care, targeting the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia with a sweeping subpoena demanding detailed records—including names and Social Security numbers—of patients who received such treatments. This move is part of a broader campaign to prosecute medical providers offering care to transgender youth, following a directive from Attorney General Pam Bondi to aggressively pursue these cases.The hospital pushed back against the subpoena, calling it an invasive overreach into a vulnerable population's privacy. In response, DOJ took the unusual step of asking the court to unseal the litigation, a departure from standard practice in sensitive investigations where proceedings are typically kept sealed to protect investigatory integrity. The judge sided with the DOJ, opening the docket earlier this month.The subpoena was signed by Brett Shumate, the newly confirmed head of DOJ's civil division, bypassing career officials who had refused to sign similar subpoenas due to ethical and legal concerns. Internal dissent had already emerged, with former officials warning that collecting such data lacked a strong legal basis, especially since off-label prescriptions like puberty blockers are not illegal under federal law.Critics say the investigation appears more performative than prosecutorial, designed to chill gender-affirming care through public pressure rather than build viable legal cases. The Trump administration has also directed other agencies, including HHS and the FTC, to scrutinize these practices, while states like Pennsylvania have filed lawsuits challenging the administration's actions. The outcome of the Philadelphia case, now in front of a federal judge, could shape how far the administration can go in turning gender-related health care into a legal battleground.Justice Department Expands Gender Care Probe as Hospital FightsA recent ruling in the Epic Games v. Apple case has sparked growing concern among corporate legal teams that the boundaries of attorney-client privilege—especially for in-house counsel—are being narrowed in ways that could harm innovation and compliance. The district court found Apple had improperly claimed privilege over documents that mixed legal advice with business guidance, drawing a sharp rebuke that “adding a lawyer's name to a document does not create a privilege.”That finding is now being appealed, with organizations like TechNet and the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) warning that upholding the decision could upend how legal departments operate—particularly in fast-moving sectors like AI and cybersecurity, where legal and business decisions are tightly intertwined. In-house counsel argue they need the flexibility to weigh legal risks within the real-world context of product development, market pressures, and regulatory uncertainty.At issue is the standard used to define privilege. The Ninth Circuit has previously backed the “primary purpose” test, which protects dual-purpose communications if a significant purpose was legal. But the district court's approach appeared more rigid, raising fears that companies will be discouraged from seeking or documenting legal guidance unless they rely on expensive outside counsel.Legal leaders say this shift would disproportionately impact smaller firms and startups already stretched thin. They also point to a broader ambiguity across federal circuits regarding dual-purpose communications, and argue that only a Supreme Court ruling can definitively resolve the inconsistencies.Oral arguments in the appeal are set for October 21.Apple Ruling Raises Business Fear of Legal Privileges ErodingA federal appeals court has allowed the Trump administration to move forward with ending deportation protections and work permits for over 60,000 immigrants from Honduras, Nicaragua, and Nepal. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued an unsigned order permitting the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for these groups while legal challenges continue. No legal reasoning was provided in the brief order.The decision lifts an earlier block by a federal district judge, who had ruled that the move was likely driven by racial animus, violating constitutional protections. The new ruling immediately ends protections for Nepali nationals, with protections for Honduran and Nicaraguan immigrants set to expire by September 8.The Department of Homeland Security praised the ruling as a step toward restoring the immigration system's integrity, arguing TPS has been misused as a backdoor form of asylum. Immigrant advocates, meanwhile, condemned the lack of explanation from the court and warned of serious humanitarian consequences for those now facing deportation to unstable regions.The case remains ongoing, but for now, thousands of individuals who have lived and worked legally in the U.S. for years are left in legal limbo.Trump can end deportation protections for 60,000 immigrants, appeals court says | ReutersElon Musk must face a lawsuit alleging he and his political action committee, America PAC, ran an illegal election-year lottery disguised as a $1 million-a-day giveaway. A federal judge in Texas ruled that plaintiff Jacqueline McAferty plausibly claimed Musk misled voters—particularly in battleground states—into signing a petition supporting the U.S. Constitution by offering what appeared to be a random chance at a $1 million prize.McAferty alleges that, in exchange for signing, voters were required to provide personal data—names, addresses, phone numbers, and emails—which she claims was exploited for political targeting. Musk argued that the program was not a lottery because recipients were chosen to “earn” the funds and serve as America PAC spokespeople. But the judge pointed to conflicting language used in promotional materials suggesting the money could be “won,” making it reasonable for voters to think it was a sweepstakes-style contest.Judge Robert Pitman, an Obama appointee, also rejected Musk's argument that voters suffered no harm, noting that expert testimony could establish the market value of political data collected during the promotion.The lawsuit, filed on Election Day 2024, underscores growing concerns over the use of high-dollar giveaways in political campaigning and how voter data is gathered and deployed in swing states. Musk and his PAC have not yet commented on the ruling.Elon Musk must face lawsuit claiming he ran illegal $1 million election lottery | ReutersAnd in a piece I wrote for Forbes earlier this week: the new One Big Beautiful Bill Act revives full expensing for U.S.-based research and development, a policy designed to encourage domestic innovation and hiring. At first glance, it seems like a major win for the tech sector and high-skilled job creation. But the labor market response reveals a deeper issue: you can't stimulate demand for talent without also addressing supply. With immigration pathways constrained and no meaningful expansion of domestic training infrastructure, the policy has triggered a spike in labor costs rather than a boom in innovation.In the absence of new talent pipelines, startups and tech firms are now paying steep premiums to hire U.S.-based engineers, effectively converting the R&D tax break into a subsidy for a tight labor market. Meanwhile, immigration policy remains restrictive, and education-focused workforce solutions aren't being scaled fast enough to meet the moment. The result is a bottleneck: jobs going unfilled, innovation slowing, and companies forced to reconsider hiring or delay projects altogether.The piece argues that while R&D expensing is smart fiscal policy, it only works as part of a broader strategy that includes visa reform, immigration support for high-skilled workers, and real investments in talent development. Without those pieces in place, we're left with a politically appealing tax tweak that, in practice, fails to deliver the innovation surge it promises.Turns Out Research Tax Breaks Alone Can't Conjure Developers This is a public episode.

On this episode of the Real Estate Education Podcast, Aaron and James break down the return of 100% bonus depreciation for short-term rental investors, now made permanent under the new tax bill. They explain how this powerful tax strategy—often called the "STR loophole"—allows qualifying investors to accelerate depreciation deductions and offset their W2 income, potentially saving tens of thousands of dollars annually. Using real-world examples, they walk through the three key steps to implement this strategy and discuss why it's exclusive to STRs versus traditional long-term rentals. The hosts also explore a significant shift in mortgage lending: how the Federal Housing Finance Agency is directing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to include cryptocurrency assets in loan qualification processes. Drawing from recent industry reports showing 5.4% of homebuyers now sell crypto for down payments, they discuss the implications of treating volatile digital assets similarly to tech stocks in mortgage underwriting, while weighing the benefits for younger buyers against potential risks to financial stability.

   On a day www.fox4kc.com reports that if the Royals leave it will be Mayor Q's fault, we learn that Frank White has blown it again for Jackson County.  If/when the Royals and Chiefs leave the sports complex, it will definitely be more of a Frank White problem than the mayor.  In a recent letter to the governor, White offers to cut off the Royals completely AND lower the money the Chiefs get from a 3/8 cent sales tax.   Between he two of them, it has to be over in Jackson County.    I met a friend yesterday, not a conservative, and we had a chatty waiter.  What happened when the waiter asked what I do for a living was an eye opening moment for the young man, if only he wanted to open his eyes.  I was literally talking to two people that will save $16,800 between them in federal taxes next year and don't believe it's true.    The Kansas economy is ranked third to the bottom of states in the country, the first lady is helping Trump with his Russia policy and Lambert Field in St. Louis had a waiting line out the door almost to I-70 yesterday.   In sports, the Big Dumper wins the home run derby, the Royals have the easiest schedule in the league the rest of the way and Fox Sports 1 fires almost everybody.  Then, our Final Final is buyer beware if you're trying to become an extra on the set of Ted Lasso filming in KC.

Marc and former State Senator John Lamping analyze recent Missouri legislation signed by Governor Kehoe, focusing on the economic and political impacts. They discuss the contentious stadium funding bill benefiting the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals, highlighting how the St. Louis Cardinals stand to gain hundreds of millions for stadium upgrades despite sitting out the negotiations. Lamping shares his candid view on the Chiefs and Royals potentially moving to Kansas and expresses indifference toward the Royals. They also cover Kehoe's surprising mix of consensus-driven politics—supporting both school choice and increased public school funding—and recent laws such as the K-12 cell phone ban and free in-state college tuition for first responders' kids. The conversation critiques government expansion masked as incentives, stresses the importance of property rights, and warns of looming fiscal constraints due to Medicaid funding changes. The segment closes with a nod to Ethan's contribution to the show's new intro music.

President Trump's newly signed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" has made the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions permanent, creating massive opportunities for real estate investors to reduce their tax burden and potentially save thousands of dollars on their 2025 returns. On this episode of On The Market, host Dave Meyer and CPA Brandon Hall break down the most significant tax code changes included in the new legislation. They'll touch on the permanent extension of 100% bonus depreciation, the increased SALT deduction cap and QBI deduction for pass-through entities. With housing prices remaining elevated and mortgage rates still impacting affordability, these permanent tax advantages could be the key to maintaining profitability and cash flow in today's changing real estate market.

This week, Mark and Shani take a look at a quirk to one of the most generous tax concessions that we have in Australia, the CGT exemption for your home. The CGT exemption also allows for you to rent out your property for a number of years, and still claim the CGT-exempt status. We take a deep dive into the tax policy, the circumstances that it suits and the situations to avoid that would make homeowners pay more tax than they need to. You can read the full article here.You can find more examples of the policy on the ATO website.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.
