I am pleased to share that the 84th Institute on Federal Taxation (IFT) will be held in New York City on October 19-24, 2025, and in San Francisco, California, on November 16-21, 2025.
At this year’s Institute, I will be presenting the latest version of my white paper, A Continuing Magical Mystery Tour Through Subchapter S, which is now well over 220 pages and contains a close look at several of the obscure aspects of Subchapter S.
During our session, we will embark on a journey through many of the not-so-obvious provisions of the Code and regulations that impact Subchapter S corporations and their shareholders, including some of the magical provisions of the Code and regulations. We will round off our voyage by examining the key takeaways from notable cases and rulings that shape this highly nuanced area of tax law.
I am truly honored to once again have the chance to contribute to IFT, joining an extraordinary assembly of the nation’s leading tax professionals. My presentation will be part of the Closely Held Businesses program, chaired by my longtime friend and esteemed colleague, Jerald David August, on October 23 (New York City) and November 20 (San Francisco). I am excited to kick off the program on both days as we gear up for a full day of learning.

Having served as an IFT speaker for well over a decade, I continue to find the Institute to be an incredible opportunity to connect with the broader tax community and contribute to the NYU School of Professional Studies’ longstanding tradition of excellence in continuing legal education. The 84th IFT will cover a broad range of critical federal tax topics, including tax controversies, executive compensation and employee benefits, international and corporate taxation, real estate and partnership taxation, closely held businesses, trusts and estates, and ethics.
I hope you will consider joining us for this one-of-a-kind program full of timely updates, thoughtful analysis and practical insights that you can apply to your practice. I look forward to connecting with you in New York City or San Francisco!
