Course Overview

This course is valid up to December 31st, 2023 for CFP Professionals. It is advisable to complete this course before that to process the credit on time.

Undoubtedly, just about every individual should create an estate plan as soon as feasibly possible. Many people harbor the misconception that an estate plan is only necessary for the rich or individuals with significant assets. As a result of this misconception, many people end up overlooking the assets they do possess because they believe that they don’t have an estate. All people, with very few exceptions, possess an estate and accordingly need an estate plan.

Estate planning provides families with a great opportunity to be prepared for unexpected incapacity and death. Whether we are 20 and just beginning a career or 50 and seeking to retire, we must all seek better methods for planning our futures. Simply put, why bother with estate planning – easy, you get to plan where your money goes, how it gets invested, how to minimize tax implications, and heaven forbid incapacity or death, someone else gets your money other than Uncle Sam.

Estate planning has many intricacies that many including clients do not want to deal with. As a tax planner or someone involved with those that seek retirement, future planning is crucial for creating liquidity and a legacy and this CPE course on estate planning helps you deal with that.

An estate plan can include many different types of documents, including wills and trusts. There are so many different tools that will allow you to have a comprehensive and customized estate plan.

In this CE/CPE tax course, speaker Daniel Rahill will discuss income tax and estate planning strategies including recent legislative updates impacting taxpayers.

The following discussion will be covered:

  • Legislative Update: Build Back Better on the Back Burner
  • Post-pandemic Inflation 
  • Tax Planning Strategies for Appreciated Assets
  • Grantor Trusts with Swap Provisions
  • Spousal Lifetime Access Trust (SLAT) Example
  • CRTs, CLTs, Charitable Gift Annuities, and Pooled Income Funds 
  • Donor-Advised Funds and Private Foundations
