Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting:

What: During the 2016 tax return filing season, Congress failed in their efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. President Trump has promised a tax reform proposal for a couple of months and has said his Administration will provide a high-level plan this Wednesday. With the filing season behind us, the focus now shifts to further efforts to repeal and reform the Affordable Care Act, including the several taxes included therein, and on fundamental tax reform. President Trump has also issued a number of executive orders and a proposed budget that also have significant impact on the IRS.

With the Administration’s tax proposals expected shortly and still pushing to achieve health care repeal and reform before tax reform, taxpayers are bound to see changes in tax legislation this year. Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting is closely monitoring these developments and has just released a new tax briefing providing a 2017 post-filing season update. Additionally, Wolters Kluwer tax experts are available to provide insight and analysis on what tax changes individuals and businesses can expect for the rest of the year.

Why: With Republicans in control of both the Administration and Congress for the first time in many years, many are predicting that 2017 could be the most significant year we have had for tax changes since 1986.
