Current Developments in Tax Law (Audio Download)
Turmoil in the economy has led to a rise of indebtedness among both individuals and businesses. In the face of these hardships, lenders have been focusing more on cooperating with borrowers to reduce debts, including modifying mortgages and other obligations and, in some cases, canceling indebtedness. In focusing on relief, debtors too often fail to make note of the tax consequences of restructured debt. Reduction and cancellation of indebtedness can have significant repercussions under federal...
