The Pass-Through Deduction Changes
The Section 199A pass-through deduction is modified significantly. The income threshold for the full deduction is raised to $250,000 (single) and $500,000 (married), but service trade exclusions are tightened.
Core Takeaway
If you operate a specified service business and previously claimed the 199A deduction, consult a CPA immediately. The new rules may require restructuring your business entity before the effective date.
