How Will The Changes To The SALT Deduction Affect Your Tax Planning?

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) shifts the landscape for federal income tax deductions for state and local taxes (SALT), albeit temporarily. If you have high SALT expenses, the changes could significantly reduce your federal income tax liability. But it requires careful planning to maximize the benefits — and avoid potential traps that could increase your effective tax rate.

So, You Have Inherited a Traditional IRA — Now What?

So, You Have Inherited a Traditional IRA -- Now What? The time of inheriting a traditional IRA may be occupied by a range of mixed emotions, from grief for a lost loved one to the joy of receiving a windfall of money that you may not have expected.  When you inherit an IRA, then you are a “beneficiary” for purposes of federal tax rules.  A beneficiary can be a person or an entity, such as a trust, and that beneficiary must choose how to receive the benefits of the IRA after the original owner passes away.  Beneficiaries of a traditional IRA must include any taxable distributions they receive in their gross income. Therefore, consulting with a tax advisor can help you understand your options for choosing the distribution method that best suits your financial situation and minimizes your tax liability.
