"I enjoy the online CPE because it allows for me to stay up-to-date with pertinent accounting issues while studying on my own time. I can pause the sessions and resume at my convenience. I feel the CPE is highly relevant as a majority of the sessions have lecturers who are experts in their field. The online interface that NYSSCPA utilizes is user friendly and allows me to easily sort by topic."

The nonprofit and government sectors face much the same challenges as the corporate sector, and the past year has been no different. The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically transformed not only the operations of nonprofits but also their ability to fundraise.

  • Retirement Plan Distributions – New Guidance From The Department of Labor
    Jun 1, 2021
    Whether you audit retirement plans, assist employers or individual clients with retirement benefits or are responsible as a fiduciary for your own retirement plan, you know that the proper distribution of benefits is at the very heart of tax-favored retirement plans, which broadly encompass Section 401(k) and 403(b) plans, profit sharing plans, employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs), defined benefit plans, and various other forms of plans, programs, and arrangements.

One of the most disruptive and wide-reaching changes was the repeal of Section 958(b)(4), which historically had prevented the downward attribution of stock from foreign persons to U.S. entities in the context of the U.S. controlled foreign corporation (CFC) provisions.

    Jun 1, 2021

    For companies where ownership is vested exclusively in one individual, there is often a need to address continuity of the company in the event of the sole owner’s death or incapacity. The surviving spouse of an owner may not want to be encumbered with a business foreign to him, and an unclear line of succession could lead to in-fighting or panicking among employees at all levels of the business; in this way, an asset that has produced income for loved ones in the past now becomes a potential liability.
