In addition, the course identifies and addresses planning opportunities that arise in the preparation of corporate income tax returns. However, the course's exploration of tax planning matters focuses on those that are, or can be, implemented during the preparation of tax returns, rather than broader tax planning (including owner-manager remuneration) undertaken on a proactive basis outside of year-end financial statement and tax return preparation.
If you are seeking a more detailed review of other corporate tax planning issues you may wish to consider attending Corporate Tax - Review of Tax Planning or other courses focused on specific tax planning topics of interest.
Furthermore, the course excludes discussion about the completion of specific tax return forms due to the constant evolution of these forms and the practical reality that tax returns are virtually always prepared by professionals using computer software.
