Description

For the unwary and unprepared, the tax treatment of transfer or termination of a partner's interest in a partnership, triggered by retirement, death, gift, exchange, or abandonment, is challenging and confusing. These issues are critical for practitioners who prepare Form 1065.

Return preparers must focus on the tax consequences to the seller resulting from the sale of a partnership interest, treatment of payments to a deceased partner's successor, the partnership, and remaining partners, and the tax effect on a partner who gifts, contributes, or abandons their partnership interest.

Listen as our authoritative panel reviews the rules and offers guidance for a return preparer's work related to partnership terminations. The panel will explain transfers of partnership interests, including the retirement of a partner, gift, exchange, contribution, or abandonment of a partnership interest, and death of a partner.
