Tax Advisors Reference Guide On President Trump’s Executive Orders On The Elimination of 298 IRS Existing Regulations #1

Tax Advisors Guide On President Trumps Executive Orders On Elimination Of 298 Regulations

Tax Advisors would never know what was hidden in the proposed removal of 298 IRS regulations unless they spent twenty-five hours researching the links to the IRC which we did for TaxConnections members. Based on a preliminary review, these proposals could be very far reaching and we urge TaxConnections members to review the proposed changes immediately and if interested, request the opportunity to testify at the IRS public hearings on topics of interest to you and your clients.

We spent hours linking up the proposed removals of these tax laws to the Code of Federal Regulations for you. This saves our members many hours of research time in order to enable our members to focus on analysis of these changes.

TaxConnections Members should carefully study this information in order to make comments or request a public hearing on these far reaching proposals. If you want to comment or request a public hearing, you must make a request for a public hearing before May 14, 2018.

Pursuant to President Trumps Executive Orders 13777 and 13789, the Treasury Department and the IRS conducted a review of existing regulations with the goal of reducing the regulatory burden of taxpayers as set forth in President Trumps Executive Orders.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking issued by the Treasury Department proposes to streamline IRS Regulations by removing 298 IRS Regulations that are no longer necessary because they do not have current or future applicability under the Internal Revenue Code; and by amending 79 IRS Regulations to reflect the proposed removal of the 298 IRS Regulations. The proposed removal and amendment of these IRS Regulations may affect a wide range of taxpayers in the United States and abroad, including your clients.

We focus on educating the journey to sell a practice and how to increase firm revenue prior to any sale. Our program ensures you start years prior to a sale by learning what is expected of you during the selling process, and introducing firm Partners to cross selling opportunities that are easy to implement and reduce your workload at the same time. We introduce you to value added connections to smartly grow revenue in your accounting practice.

Kat Jennings has been retained by organizations worldwide to locate tax professionals with highly specialized tax knowledge and expertise. She has a thorough understanding of the tax business community, with a proven record of stellar performances matching professionals with organizations. Bringing two parties together to work successfully is the art of understanding personalities, cultural fit, expectations by both parties, flexible or inflexible work environments, understanding what drives and motivates each party, and revolves around the personality and ethics of each executive team.

Kat is a widely recognized expert in high level, tax executive search, as well as connecting buyers and sellers of accounting firms. TaxConnections provides and educates small to medium size accounting firms owners and Partners how to prepare and sell their firms so they can build a succession plan for their retirement.

Most firm owners are unaware they are not ready to sell when they decide to retire. TaxConnections educates firm owners’ what they need to do years in advance of selling an accounting firm practice.
Senior tax executives expect the utmost privacy when being introduced to multinational organizations about a new tax opportunity under consideration. Having said that, companies searching for a new head of tax expecting tax executive candidates to submit their resume through a resume portal, will never see a full slate of outstanding tax executives available due to a candidates’ desire for greater privacy. This is why privacy focused Uber Tax Recruiters consistently outperform in-house recruiters on tax executive searches.

We offer our clients a Performance Retainer Agreement arrangement so their HR department can still recruit and compete with the tax candidates we present on Head of Tax searches. The client pays us a partial fee upfront, and if they find a candidate they deem better than we introduce to them, we forfeit the final fee. Most of the time, they love and prefer our private introductions to tax executive candidates better than what they source through their own resume portals.

When we represent selling/buying small to medium-sized firms, firm owners/partners also demand greater privacy when considering the sale of their practice. TaxConnections provides a safe place to discuss their business needs, elevate their practices’ online reputation, and increase revenue through new streams of business development by outsourcing work and partnering with other firms. Over three decades, we have worked tirelessly to build relationships between firm owners most organizations rarely have access to in the world of tax.
