As part of the tax research process, you need to identify and analyze all primary sources pertinent to answering a tax question. Fulfilling these tasks would be extremely difficult without the aid of secondary sources.
A secondary source of federal tax law is a reference that gathers primary sources of federal tax law in one convenient location, explains and comments on primary sources, tells you whether a primary source still is good law, and/or lists other primary sources that have dealt with the same tax question. Examples of secondary sources include:
- Code-organized tax references
- Topic-organized tax references
- Citators
- Journals
- Tax institute publications
- Newsletters
- Electronic databases
This course details the different types of secondary sources, including what they are and where to find them, the advantages and disadvantages of using different sources, as well as how to locate pertinent material within secondary sources.
