The Biden Tax Plan: Proposed Changes & Planning Opportunities

2020 has been an unusual year, to say the least. And as if normal year-end planning, combined with the complexities brought about by a pandemic weren't enough to deal with on their own, 2020 offered an additional complication....a Presidential election! President-elect Joe Biden has detailed a few substantial changes to the tax code, the focus primarily on individual income tax and investment tax.
