Join special guest instructor Mary Beth Lougen, EA, USTCP for the Compass Tax Educators webinar “Practitioner’s Guide to the Sec. 965 Repatriation Tax” on April 3, 2018. Other members of the Compass Tax Educators team will also be available on this webinar to moderate the event and answer questions.

The Tax Cuts & Jobs Act completely redefined the U.S. tax regime for foreign corporations owned by U.S. persons. To facilitate this change, Congress imposed a one-time tax on certain offshore earnings: the learning curve is steep, the IRS issued guidance only last week, and the timeline for our clients is very short. This course outlines the who, what, when, where, and, most importantly, how of computing and paying this tax.

The learning objectives for this webinar include:

• Recognize the new terminology and expanded definitions in §965.
• Identify taxpayers who are subject to the §965 repatriation tax.
• Apply IRS guidance to compute the §965 repatriation tax.
• Prepare the election to pay the §965 tax over 8 years.
