Taylor Nelson Amitrano is delighted to announce that Associate Attorney Dennis Nguyen was featured in Tax Notes with the publication of his article, “COVID-19 Theft Losses: Kwong May Allow Theft Loss Under IRC § 165(h)(5).” 

Tax Notes, published by Tax Analysts, is one of the nation's leading tax publications and an important resource for attorneys, accountants, academics, and other tax professionals.

United States may support certain theft loss deductions under IRC § 165(h)(5) involving pandemic-related fraud schemes. Readers will gain insight into the legal framework surrounding these claims, the competing arguments that taxpayers and the IRS may raise, and the procedural considerations that could affect potential refund opportunities.
