Book Description

As a tax professional, staying on top of all the annual changes to tax law and provisions is a substantial challenge, with a constant need to have the latest information at your fingertips wherever you go. While the COVID-19 pandemic has begun to subside, and Congress is no longer faced with having to provide a constant flow of relief for taxpayers and businesses, the IRS has continued to release guidance related to those prior legislative efforts. And though Congress has stopped passing pandemic relief legislation, it does continue to pass other tax-related laws. To help you understand recent updates and essential guidance, the U.S. Master Tax Guide (2022) Special Edition has been carefully researched by experts to reflect the current U.S. tax structure, and includes explanations updated for the tax aspects of Congressional and administrative action, including the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, so you can best serve your client's 2021 filing needs and get ready for the 2022 season. It also includes the latest IRS guidance on prior relief legislation, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. Tax preparers can access resources for tax planning opportunities and guidance on several key issues, including changes to retirement planning, retirement funding and distributions, the transition tax, Section 199A Qualified Business Income Deductions, bonus depreciation, GILTI, and more. The guide also includes easy-to-use cross-references to the Internal Revenue Code, Income Tax Regulations, and other key tax law sources to connect explanatory text to the complex regulations it applies to. Additionally, it includes reference to additional material, including explanations, tools, calculators and practice aids, available on CCH(R) AnswerConnect. Included Tables and Resources Alongside detailed reviews of credits, expenses, penalties and interest, the U.S. Master Tax Guide (2022) Special Edition also includes numerous tables that provide fast reference information when you need it most.
