New 2018 tax changes – 20% Pass-Through Entity Deduction

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, signed into law on December 22, 2017, created a new provision for the owner of certain business entities. The 20% Pass-Through Entities deduction (Sec. 199A deduction) allows owners of Pass-Through Entities to deduct up to 20% of the income earned by the business.

*Pass-Through Entities: Sole Proprietorships, S Corporations, Partnerships, or LLCs.

Limitations on 20% Pass-Through Entity Deduction

However, If your business is a specified service trade or business such as health, law, consulting, and financial services and your taxable income on your personal tax return exceeds certain amounts, you may not have a full 20% deduction. Please see the below chart for ranges of the taxable income and their deduction limits.
