Community Banking Tax Update - John Cederberg, John Cederberg CPA
Members Only

It has been only 17 months since the President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The IRS has worked hard to issue guidance under the new law, but we are still working with a mix of proposed and final regulations, revenue procedures, and notices or announcements. Some issues have not been addressed yet. John will discuss the implications of the Act on the tax management of community banks, on whether to make, retain, or revoke the S election, and on changes of control. He will also alert the members to the most frequent questions that he has fielded in his consulting practice. Finally, as always, we expect a robust exchange of questions and ideas among the group.
