Maximizing the 199A Deduction: OBBBA's Modifications, Planning Strategies

About the Course

Introduction

This course will provide advisers to businesses with strategies to increase the generous 20% QBI (qualified business income) deduction under 199A, now made permanent by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). The panel will cover tips to maximize W-2 income and assets when applicable, strategies for separating and aggregating businesses, and other planning strategies.

Description

The deduction, in its purest form, is 20% of qualified income. The calculation requires extra time and adds an additional layer of complexity to every return with a taxable business. For income exceeding certain thresholds, the deduction is limited to the lesser of 20% of QBI or the greater of 50% of W-2 wages paid by the business or the total of 2.5% of UBIA (unadjusted basis after initial acquisition) plus 25% of W-2 wages.

OBBBA has significantly increased eligibility thresholds for this deduction and added a new minimum deduction of $400 (adjusted annually for inflation) for qualifying taxpayers with less than $1,000 in QBI. 

There are planning opportunities to explore for the 199A deduction. Ensuring a business' income is qualified, staying under thresholds, increasing asset acquisition costs, and increasing W-2 wages are just a few approaches that can significantly impact a taxpayer's deduction.

Listen as our panel of experts divulges strategies for maximizing the deduction under 199A.
