New Tax Laws: Unpacking The One Big Beautiful Bill (Part 1) - Episode 83
In today's episode, Chris and Danny begin a two-part series exploring what’s inside the new tax legislation (i.e., The One Big Beautiful Bill Act) that's been making headlines.
In this first episode, they unpack several key updates: the permanent extension of the TCJA tax brackets, a modest bump in the standard deduction, and notable changes to itemized deductions—including a higher SALT cap, newly deductible private mortgage insurance (PMI), and an adjusted charitable giving threshold. They also touch on a new group of below-the-line deductions, like those for tips, overtime, auto loan interest, and enhanced deductions for seniors.
This episode aims to provide a clear overview—not personalized advice. Tax changes can be complex and may affect individuals differently depending on income, filing status, and other eligibility factors. This episode is all about laying the groundwork for understanding what’s changed and what might be worth a closer look.
Let’s dive in!
