About This Document

On Oct. 8, 2024, the IRS released new regulations requiring a land trust to report a different category of transactions if the land trust meets the criteria of being a “material advisor.”  The Land Trust Alliance has sent a listed transaction letter to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel requesting clarification to prevent unnecessary confusion by donors and donees and thus reduce the number of false-positive filings.
