Hi everyone! 👋 I'm a recent Software Engineering graduate looking for my first opportunity as a Software Engineer or a pre-employment internship. I'm passionate about Java, Spring Boot, Full-Stack development, and DevOps. I'm eager to learn, hardworking, and ready to prove myself. If you know of any opportunities or can offer advice or a referral, I'd truly appreciate it. Thank you! 🙏 #OpenToWork

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.

Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
