Join expert Greg White, CPA, as he walks you through the latest techniques for minimizing the impact of the passive activity rules. We’ll cover the “recharacterization rules” that can transform passive income into nonpassive income (and how this can help avoid the net investment income tax). We’ll also cover the disposition rules that allow taxpayers to free up suspended passive losses.
