The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was revolutionary in what it did – spreading out tax brackets, lowering tax rates, and simplifying tax preparation for many.

However, many of these tax changes pertaining to individuals sunset at the end of 2025, so tax planning related to this is crucial. This video covers the big changes that will occur if TCJA sunsets without any government intervention:

• Itemized deductions and personal exemptions will resume
• Tax rates will revert to the previous, higher rates
• Child Tax Credit will decrease to the previous, lower rate
• QBID (for business owners) will be discontinued
• Significant decrease in Estate and Gift Tax exemption

Watch now for more information on how this may affect you, and how to be proactive in planning for these changes.
