An important part of your role as an advisor is to offer general advice about tax issues. You should therefore have a sound knowledge of the federal income tax rules. As an advisor, though, you do not need to be a tax expert. In fact, many situations require that you refer clients to such experts rather than taking on that role yourself.
In this course, you will learn about the importance of addressing income tax issues in financial planning. The course covers three tax planning strategies: eliminate, reduce, and defer taxes payable by clients.
The course will also cover how income taxes are calculated on personal income tax returns and the rules that apply to taxation of investment income. Other subjects covered include tax minimization techniques and taxation of the different types of business structures.
