- MNsure or the Affordable Care Act
- Tax bill proposals at the Minnesota Legislature
- Tax identify theft and fraudulent returns
- Tax implications of major life changes (marriage, new baby, saving for college or planning for retirement)
To understand small-business issues
CPAs are trusted advisers to small-business owners. Give the small-business owners in your audience the expert insight they need on the issues impacting them, such as:
- Business valuation tips
- Financing options (including crowdfunding)
- Depreciation issues
- Sales tax audits
To understand financial literacy topics
CPAs have helpful tips for people looking to improve their financial situation. Request a CPA spokesperson for consumer-friendly tips on:
