This course discusses the tax law as currently writen with the expiration of the TCJA. As we all know the TCJA is set to expire this year, and with no tax bill in place (to replace or extend) it will revert back to previous tax law prior to the TCJA (2017 Tax Law). So what does this mean for your client, as death inheritance will revert to a lower tax exempt amount, individual and business tax rates will increase, child care credit will drop, EIC individual and joint earninngs for qualification will decrease, and of course the Standard deduction will decrease as well. There is time between now and December, a new bill may be introduced and possibly passed however, you may want to advise your clients for the best next step forward and how best to advise them.
