2nd or 3rd course taken where Nick Preusch (hope I spelled correctly) was the presenter. Very likeable, lively discussion with fabulous anecdotes and real-life examples. Love his presentations and the greater detail provided for 4684 form. I've been a CPA since 2015 and not once have I completed a tax return involving casualty loss. I wasn't back in Texas until after Hurricane Harvey. Thank you for this course.

I did enjoy the course and it may be a little advanced for me. The majority of the tax returns I do are much more basic. I will continue to watch more of the courses because they seem to be excellent courses.
