Changes in Regulation July 1 no, effective January 1 2014

    Gleim sent this email to me, this is true???

    For the federal taxation area, the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations in effect 6 months before the beginning of the current window may be tested. Changes in the federal taxation area, the Internal Revenue Code, and federal taxation regulations may be included in the testing window beginning 6 months after the change’s effective date or enactment date, whichever is later.

    Author’s Note: By adding the phrase “or enactment date, whichever is later,” the AICPA is allowing 6 months to pass after retroactive changes are enacted. For example, a tax law change on June 1, 2013, retroactive to June 1, 2012, cannot be tested until January 1, 2014, rather than July 1, 2013, as under the old rules.

    FAR: 91, first attempt

    BEC: 86, first attempt

    AUD: 99, first attempt

    REG:???

    Here it is in NINJA-English:

    For July exams, you will need to know the updated Section 179 amounts for 2013.

    Is this a big deal? No. There are some slight tweaks.

    The updated NINJA Notes will be out Monday. HiYa!

    someone answer ^Aqeel's question please Are there major changes for REG in jan 2014, i've looked but can't really find a definite answer.

    I haven't heard of any major tax law since January 1 that would impact the CPA exam. So I would imagine that the same tax law will be tested from 7/1/2013-6/30/2014. Hopefully Jeff can confirm!
