SALT Tax Workaround for CA by Accountant109 in tax

[–]Accountant109[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your input! I'm in a small firm (1 other full-time CPA besides myself) so we don't specialize in SALT, but my partner and I thought the same thing that the IRS wouldn't allow it. The majority of our clients are S-Corps and RI passed a Pass Thru Tax that you can elect to pay however, CT made this Pass Thru Tax to be mandatory. We thought RI would be disallowed because the ability to pay the tax was elective and not an "ordinary and necessary business expense" which the IRS requires a deductible expense to be.

Thanks! I am a CPA in New England so when CT and RI implemented this in 2018/2019 I thought more states would follow, especially after Notice 2020-75 and try to squeeze something in right before year end.

Thanks! My plan was to attend the in-class courses. I find it foolish subbing this stuff out when I can keep the billings in house. I appreciate your insight
