A corporate partner I’m close with reached out and asked if I’d be interested in an in house role. I’m currently a 4th year and have been at this firm for 18 months. Should I be worried?

Maybe they know of an in-house role they think will be a good fit. If you are close just ask.

Ok that’s what I thought. I’d talk to the partner they likely know work is drying up and maybe have a good exit for you. Just get clarity on what they meant when they asked. Given the current economic environment I don’t think this means you aren’t doing good work.

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
