Integrating Estate Planning with the Tax and Financial Plan (On-Demand) 2020

Description

Today, a substantial portion of the wealth held by Americans consists of tax-deferred retirement accounts, such as traditional IRAs, 401(k)s, and 403(b)s. These accounts create a forum for personal financial planners to provide valuable planning opportunities to their clients.

Updated for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017, this CPE course covers taxation and income tax planning; integration with other areas of personal financial planning; and, the interrelationship between income tax and estate tax.

Hot topics include:

Income in respect of a decedent
Traditional retirement assets
Royalties
Equity compensation
Annuities
Roth IRAs
Risk management
Elder planning
Special needs
Terminal illness planning
Charitable planning

This course also considers planning for income in respect of a decedent (IRD), retirement plans, and net unrealized appreciation, elements which mandate the use of outside advisers, so personal financial planners can work with multiple advisers in achieving the client’s estate plan.
