Mobility Legislation Passes Alabama House

Governor Riley Signs Mobility Legislation Into Law

Governor Bob Riley signed Alabama's Mobility Legislation into law last Wednesday, putting the state in accordance with 41 other states who have passed similar legislation. The Senate bill passed the House with one legislative day remaining in the 2009 Regular Session.

This Act provides “Practice Privilege” for non-resident CPAs. Specifically, a licensed CPA in another state shall have all of the privileges of an Alabama CPA without the need to obtain a permit or to register with the Alabama State Board of Public Accountancy and may offer professional services in Alabama whether in person, by mail, telephone or electronic means. The effective date of the Act is October 1, 2009.

Thank you to everyone who called your legislator in support of this bill!

American Recovery & Reinvestment Act

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act

AICPA and CCH have joined forces with top tax experts Sidney Kess, J.D., CPA, and Barbara Weltman, J.D., who take a straightforward yet comprehensive look at 2009 tax legislation and related developments. Led by Bill Murphy—recently appearing as an expert on the Indianapolis news—this course offers tax professionals clear-cut guidance on the new law, including planning opportunities, pitfalls to avoid and ways practitioners can capitalize on the law with their clients. Helpful Planning Pointers and Observations - plus alerts to changes affecting 2009 income tax returns - are integrated throughout the course to assist you in both grasping and applying the new law. Sample client letters will help practitioners inform their clients of the new law.
