Practical Tax Planning - How to Create & Write Tax Planning Reports

Introduction

This 5 hour live broadcast session with case studies, roundtable discussions and lots of interaction will provide you with a useful guide to writing tax planning reports for clients. It will identify the main contents and objectives of such reports and outline the key principles to be taken into account and cover the pitfalls to beware of.

It is suitable for anyone who gets involved in providing written advice to clients about their tax affairs and in particular tax staff and partners who give advice in detailed tax planning reports.
