What’s Inside the November Monthly Tax Update?
In this update, Jason Dinesen and Nicholas Preusch break down the most impactful tax developments and what they mean for you. Here’s what you’ll learn:
Beneficial Ownership Reporting: A Landmark Ruling
The recent NFIB ruling on Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting is a win for small businesses. But what does it mean moving forward? The initial reporting deadline of January 1, 2025, could face further challenges, making it crucial to monitor the evolving landscape.
Quick Tip:
Stay proactive by educating your small business clients about potential compliance requirements and ensuring their data security plans are in place.
Form 1099-K Threshold: Delayed Again
Originally slated for a $600 threshold, Form 1099-K reporting has seen multiple delays, now starting in 2026. For 2024 and 2025, the thresholds stand at $5,000 and $2,500, respectively.
What This Means for You:
Ensure your clients understand these changes, particularly small businesses using third-party platforms, to avoid surprises down the line.
U.S.–Taiwan Tax Treaty: What’s on the Horizon?
The U.S. and Taiwan have initiated discussions on a potential tax treaty. While still in early stages, such treaties could simplify cross-border tax compliance and open new planning opportunities for professionals working with international clients.
The Surk LLC Case: Lessons on Partnership Losses
The recent Surk LLC case underscores the importance of accurate partnership loss reporting. Even with expired statutes of limitations, prior misreporting can ripple into future tax years, as seen in the IRS’s 2017 adjustments to Surk LLC’s partnership basis.
Key Takeaway:
Regularly review partnership tax filings to ensure compliance and mitigate risks of future audits.
