Course Details

The Internal Revenue Code offers numerous tax credits for individuals, families and many different types of businesses and industries. Although these credits cover many different situations, they all have the common goal of reducing the taxes otherwise payable by the recipients.

Tax credits can be very helpful to reduce your client's tax liability, and knowing the rules for each credit can drastically reduce their liability.

The course will focus on the more common credits you might see in your tax practice, including the supporting schedules and forms that are used to calculate the credits. We will discuss the Earned Income Tax Credit but will focus mainly on your responsibility as a tax preparer when a client claims the credit.
