Permanent Trump Tax Cuts Extension
- The 2017 Trump tax cuts, including individual tax brackets and some corporate rates, are now permanent, aiding long-term tax planning.
- However, benefits disproportionately favor wealthier households, while the SALT deduction cap increase is temporary and limits long-term certainty.
Strategy for Temporary SALT Cap
- Bunch deductions or time property tax payments strategically during the temporary $40,000 SALT deduction cap period.
- Consult a tax professional to optimize your tax situation with these temporary provisions.
Trump Baby Bond Insights
- Trump accounts provide $1,000 seed money for U.S.-born babies starting in 2025, converting to Roth IRAs at age 18.
