The IRS is 35-million tax returns behind by their own admission, and they managed to answer 3% of the calls that were placed last year. If you need an answer to your tax question, don’t call the IRS. Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors are here to help and answer your tax questions sooner than later. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.

Highlights/Topics:

What is the process for a non-profit to invest in syndication? Depends on whether you are required to be an accredited investor or not

What are the pros and cons of moving a company to Puerto Rico for tax planning purposes? You have to be a bonafide resident in Puerto Rico to get any benefit at all

Are life insurance proceeds taxable if a revocable living trust is the beneficiary? No, life insurance proceeds, in general, if you did not deduct the premiums, are not taxable

Is tuition for professional learning deductible? CPE, CME, and CLE credits/courses are deductible when something new for your career, but not when starting a new career

Can I buy an Airbnb with money inside and outside of an IRA? Yes, but form a partnership between yourself and your IRA, so it does not become a prohibited transaction or if you are a disqualified party
