2026–2027 Annual Tax Filing Seasons Update

Overview

For most tax practitioners, it feels as though “tax season” lasts almost all year! For that reason, it is imperative that we are cognizant of the current tax laws, deduction amounts, available credits, form revisions, and other changing elements that affect tax return planning and preparation. At the same time, we must be aware of what is scheduled to change in the next week, month, year, etc. Because of the constantly changing landscape, much of this course will overlap the 2026 and 2027 tax filing seasons.
