Like-kind exchanges using qualified exchange accommodation arrangements (QEAAs). The like-kind exchange rules generally do not apply to an exchange in which you acquire replacement property (new property) before you transfer relinquished property (property you give up). However, if you use a qualified exchange accommodation arrangement (QEAA), the exchange may qualify as a like-kind exchange. For more information, see Like-Kind Exchanges Using Qualified Exchanges Accommodation Arrangements (QEAAs) in chapter 1.

Paid preparer authorization. Beginning with your return for 2000, you can check a box and authorize the IRS to discuss your tax return with your paid preparer who signed it. If you check the "Yes" box in the signature area of your return, the IRS can call your paid preparer to answer any questions that may arise during the processing of your return. Also, you are authorizing your paid preparer to perform certain actions. See your income tax package for details.
