WebCE's Top Selling Tax Courses Cover New Tax Law
On January 28, 2019, the
Internal Revenue Service will begin to process tax refunds to taxpayers as
scheduled. Despite the government shutdown, tax refunds will be returned due to
a permanent, indefinite appropriation passed by Congress. Although the
government shutdown will not affect taxpayer refunds, the IRS has only kept
about 44% of its total workforce on hand for the season. As this is the first
filing season under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, many could have a difficult
time navigating the new tax laws. This coupled with the recent staffing cuts to
the IRS means reaching someone for help to answer filing questions could be
problematic.
Throughout the 2018 calendar year, tax preparers and educators were asked about
such items as allowances and standard deduction, personal exemptions,
eligibility for the Child Tax Credit, and the qualified business income
deduction. All of these tax codes have either been changed, eliminated, or
broadened and it’s important to be able to communicate and apply these updates.
Tax preparers can take advantage of this time to educate themselves further on
changes made by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Understanding of changes to the
tax law can make you a valuable resource for information this tax season as
you’d be able to help clients in ways others may not be able to – including the
IRS.
