Hey all. I know many of you have been asking Qs about #PPP and other #CARESAct relief. And I know I haven't been able to answer them all.

Going to take next 45 minutes or so to answer some more.

So, tell me, What's Taxing Your Mind Today?

PLEASE ask w/ #WTYMT so I can filter!
No. The nature of your previous employment doesn't change the nature of the additional $600 amount the #CARESAct authorizes.

Simply put, if you're eligible for unemployment benefits under your state law, you'll be eligible for the $600 amount too #WTYMT

. @ManasaSogNadig I'm not an expert in visas, so I'm going to 'punt' on that part. But in terms of the rules for the #PPP, it explicitly excludes only those workers "whose principal
23 place of residence is outside of
24 the United States."

. @C_Rodge1 Not clear at this point + will likely be a lender by lender decision. Suspicion though, is apps that have been received by lenders, but not been processed simply b/c #PPP ran out of funds will not have to be resubmitted. In lenders' interest!

@cjthehoo

Great Q. And another one where there is no clear answer. However, as odd as it may seem, there is a real chance they'll get to keep the full payment, and just have the Treasury write it of as a "math error".

Need add'l guidance.

"Trying to figure out something related to the 5-year rule. If someone is in year 5 currently, meaning they were going to have to distribute the rest of their inherited IRA this year, can they now split it over two years, or they can pick this year or next?" @Jerod_Frank
@Jerod_Frank If a Non-Designated Beneficiary inherited from a decedent who died prior to their RBD in 2015 - 2019, 5-Year Rule is now effectively a 6-Year Rule.

Do whatever you want during the 6 years as long as inherited account is totally empty by end of the 6th year after death. #WTYMT
"Has the deadline for solo 401(k) contributions been extended to 7/15/2020, too?" @JasonTheAdvisor

Notice 2020-23 extends deadline to 7/15/20. Worth noting that although solo 401(k) contributions can be made until then, they needed to be "elected" by 12/31/19 #WTYMT
"Can you do a 100k Roth CONVERSION and spread taxes over 3 years?" @mattgladbach

Assume Q is in ref to Coronavirus-Related Distribution.

If so, I can't cite a reason why you can't, but I wouldn't do it. Not in spirit of the law, and I see regulatory risk #WTYMT
@squatcobbleruno

Seems like it would be too good to be true to double dip on expense AND 'free' money. But nothing in #CARESAct that says to negate the expense. So until we hear otherwise, I say take it.

Also, sole prop gets double on all but net SE $

@ColinZizzi

Assuming that the Sole Prop had no employees, then yes. Assuming net Sched C => $100k, then $20,833 is max loan. BUT full thing can be forgiven if during 1st 8 weeks you send other ~$5k on rent, utilities, etc. #WTYMT
