41. The SALT deduction is eliminated entirely in Project 2025

Wed Jul 17, 2024, 09:14 AM

The few individual tax return deductions that remain would be entirely eliminated (P. 697). Other tax changes?

Deductions for education expenses? Gone.

Deductions for moving expenses (if you aren't a member of the military)? Gone.

Ability to pay for your employee benefits, such as insurance premiums, health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts, childcare spending accounts is capped at $12,000 or "preferably lower". And the cap would not be indexed to inflation.

But if you're rich or a business owner, they've got you fam.

Estate tax exemption goes to $12.9 million. Entertainment expenses are fully deductible. Corporate tax rate reduced to 18%. Capital gains tax rate 15% but be indexed to inflation.
