My previous programs focused on the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on real estate and on the financial industry, respectively. This program dives into the details regarding the changes affecting individual taxpayers. During the presentation, I will review changes to individual deductions, exemptions and credits; the concept of “filing one’s taxes on a postcard;” changes affecting homeownership decisions; and the limitation of the deduction for state and local taxes – including the viability of state-level legislation designed to circumvent the limitation.
-
Help the viewer grow comfortable with the changes impacting the preparation of IRS Form 1040 for the taxable years 2018-2025.
-
Help the viewer understand the way that the TCJA will affect their everyday clients.
-
Alert the viewer to the possible outcomes of the SALT deduction limitation and the responses put forth by state legislatures in high-tax jurisdictions.
-
Suggest to the viewer planning options for individuals to best adapt to the new statutory environment.
Katherine McDowell (Majestic Management Inc)
"I know that an hour is not long enough to cover all of the new tax law changes, however, I really appreciate the information being broken down into smaller increments of time. It makes it easier to fit in to my busy schedule, and allows me to absorb the information better. Thank you!"
Gary Oswald (Fairfax County)
"Mr. Rappaport did an excellent job summarizing the material. Provided a very good overview of individual tax changes and highlighted several areas that I was unaware of regarding implementation and impact for the 2018 tax year and future tax periods."
Joseph Walsh (Joseph P. Walsh, CPA)
"I love how the seminars are delivered early in the morning (on the west coast anyway) and in easily digestible one hour segments. For me, it's much easier to focus on and remember an hour's worth of information as opposed to eight."
Zia Parpia (Block Advisors Inc.)
"Matthew R. was incredible! I learned a lot from his opinions and examples. This seminar was short, the subject we are already familiar, but he gave this an Attorney point of view which was appreciated."
Anthony Nazarowski (Tony the Taxman)
