The Guide provides registered domestic partners (RDPs) with the step-by-step instructions they will need to prepare and file their US Income Tax returns. Written by a CPA with over 25 years experience, the Guide leads RDPs through the return preparation process using a series of examples showing them not only how much should be reported on each partner's tax return but also how to report items to minimize IRS matching issues. Templates are provided for required attachments to RDP returns. In addition to providing instructions on how to prepare RDP returns, the Guide also includes Tax Planning suggestions specific to RDPs and a section on how to respond to IRS notices.
