The Charitable Payraise® is a new financial method designed to help those converting appreciated assets to income-producing resources in a more tax-efficient manner. The result produces substantially increased after-tax client cash flow while supporting the charity(s) of their choice. The charitable tax planning course will identify the changes in tax law that facilitated the new method, elements of the ‘Should’ tax opinion in support of TCP, and the types of assets that do and do not qualify for use. In addition, the roles and responsibilities of the CPA, as well as other professionals, to implement and maintain the method will be addressed.

Each year, various limits affecting income tax preparation and planning change. Some changes commonly occur each year as a result of inflation indexing, while others occur because of new legislation or the sunsetting of existing law. This course will examine the tax changes affecting 2023 as a result of passage of the Inflation Reduction Act and the inflation-changed limits effective for 2023 that are more significant from the perspective of an income tax preparer. Some context will be supplied, as appropriate, to assist readers in understanding the changes. 

Please Note: This course covers tax issues applicable to 2022 income reported in the 2023 tax season.

Designed to make the practitioner comfortable with “high traffic” issues, this program enables participants to discuss and handle individual tax essentials. The course examines and explains the practical aspects of return preparation and individual planning, bridging the gap between theory and application. Significant new developments are summarized with an emphasis on tax savings ideas. Practical applications and illustrations are used to systematically explore tax deferral, reduction, and elimination opportunities accompanying return preparation. For example, the analysis of gross income is discussed together with income-splitting techniques; property transactions are examined alongside like-kind exchanges and involuntary conversions. The result is an extraordinary blend of the latest developments affecting individual returns and their related planning ideas.
