Tax Implications of Budget Reconciliation Bill
Part I of this article (in last month's issue) identified the proposed changes in partnership tax law as proposed by the Biden Administration and implemented by a Democratic Congress. The proposed changes are intended to simplify the tax law and permit the IRS to be able to audit and collect taxes in a more effective and efficient fashion.
