[Webinar] Virtual Tax Forum | GILTI and Subpart F High Tax Exception Regulations: Practical

The final and proposed regulations under sections 951A and 954 of the US Internal Revenue Code contain certain rules that may present planning opportunities—or possibly onerous results—depending on a taxpayer’s specific fact pattern.

During this program, we will illustrate some of the benefits and drawbacks that may arise from these regulations, and provide you with practical considerations that will help you navigate the decision as to whether to make an election to apply the global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) high-tax exclusion. We will discuss:

High time: Final and proposed regulations rework high-tax rule for GILTI and subpart F - Lexology

Recently released final regulations provide some relief to taxpayers that are subject to high foreign taxes on their global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), but whether the GILTI high-tax exclusion is beneficial to any given taxpayer will require annual calculations as there are trade-offs to making the election.

This week in tax: Pillar one and pillar two documents are leaked | International Tax Review

Plan Now for Reduction in Estate, Gift and GST Tax Exemptions

As part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the gift and estate tax exemption amount was doubled in 2018 from $5 million to $10 million, adjusted for inflation. With the inflation-adjusted amount in 2020 being $11.58 million, today, a married couple can transfer, without considering the availability of any deductions or exclusions, approximately $23 million before having to pay a federal gift or estate tax.

Of course, Congress could take action to change the gift and estate tax exemption prior to 2026. Although it seems highly improbable that any such action will be taken in 2020, many commentators believe that after the election, a new Congress may enact changes as early as next year. Therefore, it may be advisable to act before the end of this year if you wish to take advantage of the law as it exists today.
