NEW! Information Reporting for Tax-Exempt Bonds Webinar; March 31, 2021

NABL submitted comments to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on the instructions to Form 8038 and Form 8038-G. The current instructions for these forms include provisions that are ambiguous and inconsistent with each other and with published guidance, which results in differing interpretations and approaches to information reporting. David J. Cholst, Chapman and Cutler LLP and Matthias M. Edrich, Kutak Rock LLP, will serve as panelists on the webinar. Registrants will have the opportunity to ask questions and receive 1.5 CLE credit hours. Registration is $99 for NABL members and $299 for nonmembers. Click here to register online.
