Roger sits down with tax controversy attorneys Jessica Marine and Peter Haukebo of Frost Law to unpack a court ruling most tax pros haven't heard of — but probably should act on before July. The Kwong case could mean significant interest and penalty refunds for clients who filed late during the COVID pandemic, and the window to file a claim is closing fast. They also dig into where ERC cases stand now, including why blanket IRS denials are clogging the appeals pipeline and what practitioners should be watching.
