NATP Tax Forums goes virtual for 2020

With a goal to deliver exceptional tax education while respecting social distancing recommendations due to COVID-19, the National Association of Tax Professionals (NATP) is moving its annual Tax Forum event online.

The Virtual Tax Forum, taking place Oct. 20-22, allows tax pros to choose from 13 live sessions and earn up to 22 CPE.

All sessions will include the latest COVID-19 information, as well as other recent legislative updates. One feature of the Virtual Tax Forum event that attendees will enjoy is the ability to live chat with instructors during sessions and the chance to ask questions face to face in a virtual Q&A room afterwards.

Additional session topics include representation, estates, qualifying dependent and tax credits, §529 plans, foreign tax credit, S and C corporations, like-kind exchanges and Form 4797.

Each session includes handouts that contain supplemental information — this information will be available to download, or you can add on a print textbook with your registration. The textbook will be mailed to you prior to the event if purchased before Oct. 8. Session slides will also be available to download.

Attendees will also get the chance to ask questions of the instructors during live sessions via chat and on video after the class in our Q&A rooms. You’ll also receive access to our virtual expo hall where you’ll meet with exhibitors, enter giveaways and attend live demos.

The event will end with an ethics session that tax pros can attend to fulfill requirements to maintain designations.

Exhibitors interested in a virtual expo booth to share product and service information with attendees are encouraged to contact NATP at strategicrelations@natptax.com. Prices increase Oct. 9, so if you’re interested, don’t delay your registration!
