Course Description

Senator Christopher Van Hollen and Representative Bill Pascrell have both introduced bills to repeal the step-up in basis and create a gain realization at death and gift similar to the system in Canada. President Biden supports both of these proposals. The Van Hollen proposal would be effective on 1/1/2021.

In this fast-paced class, Robert S. Keebler, CPA/PFS, MST, AEP, will address the legislative framework of the Pascrell and Van Hollen bills, including retroactive gain realization on 2021 gifts.

This course is a “must-attend” for CPAs, EAs, tax lawyers, financial advisors, and accountants having clients with appreciated assets in their portfolios.
