Washington Community Property: The CPA’s Guide

Audience: CPAs, CFPs and other financial professionals who need to know more about community property to adequately advise clients with business, financial and estate planning.

Level: Basic

Description: Every local CPA, CFP, or financial advisor needs a good grounding in the Washington community property rules. Washington’s community property rules not only have an impact at divorce, but may potentially apply in every transaction a spouse makes. The community property rules can have a major impact on both business and personal assets and play a big role in federal income, gift and estate taxation. Categorization of property and debts can be complex as clients often move between, and in and out of community property states.
