Andersen Directors Adam Schwartz and Lynda Ngo will present on mobility tax and compensation issues during an upcoming webinar on October 21, 2026. The session will cover the taxation of equity, compensation structuring for international mobility, managing international assignment tax costs, corporate tax considerations, and cost estimates and scenario planning.

Join Andersen's tax and valuation professionals for a focused discussion about today's liquidity environment. In an environment where valuations are climbing earlier in the lifecycle, secondary market opportunities are expanding, traditional equity compensation plans are not always meeting the needs of employers and employees, and companies are taking diverse paths to liquidity, understanding the tax and valuation implications is critical.

New York has enacted a new annual surcharge on certain high-value residential properties in New York City that are not used as primary residences. The surcharge applies beginning with the New York City fiscal year that starts July 1, 2026. The New York City Department of Finance (DOF) began its implementation and enforcement of the Pied-á-Terre tax on July 23, 2026, with the mailing of over 31,000 notices to property owners throughout the five boroughs. The DOF originally set late-August 2026 deadlines to file an appeal but extended the deadline to September 18, 2026. An ensuing lawsuit brought by impacted homeowners has created uncertainty regarding enforcement of the tax, but taxpayers should be prepared for any outcome.

Recently enacted California legislation (S.B. 122, Chapter 23) extends the $5 million annual credit limitation, and the related refundable credit election, through taxable years beginning before January 1, 2030. Beginning in 2030, a modified limitation is scheduled to apply. As a result, taxpayers with large California credit balances, particularly California research and development (R&D) credits, should evaluate whether they are likely to use those credits in the ordinary course or whether a refundable credit election may be beneficial.
