This video has been completely updated to reflect the new Trump Tax Cut And Jobs Act of 2017

The Trump bill eliminated the loss carryback rules, it did not eliminate the rules under the Mitigation Section. 

Taxpayers who are forced to repay false profits may still reduce the income falsely reported in the prior years, if that provides a larger tax refund than the refund that would be available if the "clawed back" funds were only allowed to be deducted in the year of payment.

This tax benefit cannot be overlooked.

Starting in 2018, it is critical to compare the amount of refunds on a Clawback of profits with the value of deducting the Clawback amount in the year it is paid back.
