Inequitable Administration: Documenting Family For Tax Purposes, Anthony C. Infanti
Articles
Family can bring us joy, and it can bring us grief. It can also bring us tax benefits and tax detriments. Often, as a means of ensuring compliance with Internal Revenue Code provisions that turn on a family relationship, taxpayers are required to document their relationship with a family member.
