Introducing LukkaTax - a crypto tax preparation tool for tax practitioners!
Deliver accurate crypto tax calculations with confidence
For the 2019 tax season, the IRS has added a new question on virtual currencies, also known as cryptocurrencies, at the top of the 2019 Form 1040 Schedule 1. Since approximately 8 – 14% of the US population already own crypto assets, this is an important development for CPA firms and their clients.
The IRS has taken note. It is intensifying its focus on investors of virtual currencies, even sending letters to known crypto asset holders. Tax practitioners must be ready and able to respond to the needs of their clients invested in crypto, but many are unfamiliar with the deep complexities involved in tax calculation for this asset category.
Conversely, this presents an opportunity for firms to drive new revenue not only in consulting and preparing clients' 2019 tax returns but also amending prior year returns to comply with the IRS.
CPA.com and Lukka have partnered to provide CPA firms with an advanced virtual currency tax preparation platform – LukkaTax for Professionals. This intuitive software is built specifically for accounting professionals and is exclusively available as part of CPA.com’s preferred accounting firm solutions.
CPA.com provides Education, Account Management, Experience, Firm Adoption, Guidance, Tools, Resources and Strategy.
