Mastering Multistate Taxation of S Corporations: State Variances in Recognition of S Elections and QSSS
Recording of a 110-minute CPE webinar with Q&A
This course will provide tax preparers and advisers with detailed guidance on the most pervasive issues facing multistate taxation of S corporations. The panel will detail those states that vary from automatic acceptance of the federal S-election, review the composite return requirements, and discuss calculations, adjustments, and filing requirements for those states where the S-election fails and a composite return is not available. The panel will also outline state variances in tax treatments of qualified subchapter S subsidiaries (QSSS).
