June 9, 2017 The IRS announced today that its Large Business and International (LB&I) Division will participate in the eighth in a series of webinars on June 20 to provide tax practitioners with additional information about how its new compliance campaigns will operate. The American Bar Association will host this webinar scheduled for Tuesday, June 20, at 1 p.m. EDT. The one-hour webinar will focus on two compliance campaigns: IRC 48C Energy Credit Land Developers - Completed Contract Method (CCM) The webinar will be conducted by LB&I's Kathy Robbins, director of the Enterprise Activities Practice Area; and Pete Puzakulics, director of Corporate Issues and Credits in the Enterprise Activities Practice Area; and Lavena Williams, director of the Eastern Compliance Practice Area. To attend the June 20 webinar, register via this link to the ABA.. In announcing the initial rollout of 13 compliance campaigns in January, IRS officials said the launch was the culmination of an extensive effort to redefine compliance work and create greater transparency between the IRS and LB&I’s taxpayer segment. LB&I leaders plan to continue discussions with the tax professional community to best meet the needs of the taxpayers and tax administration. LB&I's move toward issue-based examinations and a campaign process allows the division to decide which tax issues that present risk require a response while maintaining flexibility on the best steps to achieve compliance.
