Current Federal Tax Issues and Reporting Requirements

Gain a better understanding of current reporting requirements, IRS enforcement trends, and other current tax issues.

The coronavirus pandemic has created a myriad of new legislation and Congress is expected to pass more before the close of 2021. All of this legislation directly impacts the federal tax system by creating new tax laws and modifying existing laws and regulations. The ultimate burden for correctly implementing these tax changes falls on tax practitioners. This topic will review many of the current federal tax issues and reporting requirements for 2021. We will discuss current hot topics, such as pandemic tax credits, cannabis, digital currency, and PPP loan forgiveness. We will also discuss the new President's proposed tax reform and priorities and the potential effect on taxpayers.

  • You will be able to identify multiple reporting requirement changes.
