Business & farm

You need a tax lawyer but there can be prorations if the closing is other than at the end of the tax year. If the business are taken back the tax filing wouldn't have an effect on your election so I don't see a problem there BUT you SHOULD KNOW that buying shares in a private corporation is often a BAD idea......liabilities attach and often some bad things can happen......better to buy assets instead. See a lawyer and a tax pro.
