Course Overview

Tax planning is a focal part of financial planning.

Tax planning is a legitimate way of reducing your tax liabilities in any given financial year. It helps you utilize the tax exemptions, deductions, and benefits offered by the authorities in the best possible way to minimize your liability. It is the analysis of one’s financial situation from the tax efficiency point-of-view.

This Tax CE Course will discuss effective ways financial planners can utilize to accomplish two main objectives for their clients.

First, the webinar will explore strategies to reduce the client’s overall income tax bill. Secondly, it will explain how to use deductions and credits to defer tax to another year in the future to gain the benefits of the time value of money. Finally, reviews of the highest ethical standards by which planners are expected to follow and observe in all of their work are reviewed.

This course covers the following Major Topics: 

  • Income Tax Planning – Defined
  • Planning Strategies
  • Major Legislation Passed During the Covid-19 Pandemic
  • The Secure Act
  • Business Owners - Considerations
  • Income Tax Planning Ideas and Strategies
