In addition, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 significantly affects tax planning and income tax liability for many taxpayers. This course will examine many of those changes.
The Annual Tax Filing Season Update course discusses new tax law and recent updates for the 2020 filing season, provides a general tax review, and examines important rules governing tax return preparer ethics, practices and procedures.
The newly enacted Secure Act (Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019) is also covered.
