Are you confident your firm's AI use holds up under Circular 230?

Generative AI is showing up in more and more tax practices, but it hasn't changed who's accountable for the work that goes out the door.

Running a tax firm asks more of you than technical knowledge.

You can know the rules, forms, calculations, and representation procedures and still feel like the firm itself needs better structure.

That's where conversations around workflow, service offerings, tax representation, marketing, firm management, and client experience become important.

If youโ€™re ready to think beyond the return and strengthen the firm behind the work, Iโ€™d love to see you there.

Current and aspiring Enrolled Agents will be talking about the parts of firm-building that donโ€™t always get enough attention during tax season including:
โ€ข how to structure your services
โ€ข how to manage your workflow
โ€ข how to handle representation work
โ€ข how to communicate with clients
โ€ข how to build a firm that can support the work youโ€™re doing

As tax professionals, we spend a lot of time strengthening our technical knowledge because that knowledge supports the client work.

At a certain point, the firm behind that work needs attention too because it shapes how sustainable the practice can become.

Reporting only the business miles on a vehicle, without tracking total miles driven, is one of the fastest ways to overstate a depreciation deduction. And it's one of the more common mistakes on returns with business vehicles.

This course covers that error and several others tax professionals run into with listed property and asset disposals.

We'll go through the listed property rules, what qualifies for Section 179 and bonus depreciation, and how to handle depreciation correctly in the year an asset is disposed of.

Here's what we'll cover:
โ€ข Vehicle depreciation and the mileage-tracking mistakes that inflate deductions
โ€ข Listed property rules, including the 50% business-use test
โ€ข How to calculate depreciation in the year of disposition
โ€ข Why failing to properly dispose of an asset on the books creates problems down the line

A commercial building depreciates over 39 years. A rental home depreciates over 27.5. Mix those up on a client return and the error follows the property for decades.

That's exactly the kind of mistake this course is built to catch.

We'll work through real examples covering MACRS conventions, Section 179 limits, and bonus depreciation percentages for 2024 and 2025, so you leave with a method you can apply the same day.

You'll walk away able to:
โ€ข Spot which convention applies before you touch a depreciation schedule
โ€ข Catch land-versus-building basis errors before they reach a filed return
โ€ข Apply Section 179 and bonus depreciation together, correctly, on the same asset
โ€ข Handle listed property and vehicle depreciation without the common shortcuts that backfire
