As the details of a new federal tax bill begin to emerge, accountants need to be prepared for the practical implications of what could be the most sweeping changes in recent years. As the expiration of key provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act approaches, finalized legislation — or a near-final version — is expected to impact individuals, businesses and estate planning strategies heading into 2026.

This session will provide a detailed overview of the latest tax policy developments, including finalized provisions or negotiated compromises in the proposed legislation. Topics include changes to business deductions, pass-through taxation, energy-related incentives, and estate and gift tax thresholds. It will also explore how these changes may affect year-end planning strategies and outline the broader implications for advisory and compliance work as accountants help clients adapt to a changing tax environment.
