SALT deduction changes are officially on the horizon.
Starting in 2025, the SALT (state and local tax) deduction cap will increase from $10K to $40K through 2029 for most taxpayers, excluding those who are married filing separately. That opens new tax planning windows for high earners, especially in high-tax states like CA, NY, NJ, and IL. But there’s a catch: the benefit phases out for Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) over $500K.
Here’s what that means:
✔️ More deduction room = more flexibility
✔️ Timing and strategy matter
✔️ Planning ahead could help you lower future tax burdens
Stay tax-aware, not tax-reactive by mapping a plan around the SALT cap shift ahead of time.
