Much of what happens in Tax Court is run-of-the-mill. Once the tax general practitioner learns the jurisdictional limits and procedural moguls, s/he can advise clients whether to spend the sixty bucks and the certified mail fees when TAS, Examination or Appeals can't deliver an acceptable result. Following the Court's orders and opinions for a while should do that. I try to present the less-than-usual, below-radar points for generalists and specialists.
A Compendium Of Year End Tax Tips
As summer turns to fall, the leaves turn and houses start being decorated, the air becomes crisper and the internet fills with year-end tax tip pieces. I call them tip sheets. I just love reading tip sheets, but I’m retired from active practice. Somebody who doesn’t have time on their hands might look at two or three and figure they have seen it all and didn’t learn anything they didn’t know already. I’m here to tell you that if you keep hunting, you might find some gems. But better than that, I will share what I have found in the event you don’t have the time or inclination to look at another twenty or thirty tip sheets.
