Proposed tax law changes: Most of the proposed changes to the tax law have been pulled from the table for this year. However, there is a real threat that these changes will be back next year or soon after. William D King says the only way that we can stop them is if we first understand what they are and then work together to ensure our elected officials know how much we oppose them. The truth about the proposed tax law changes that no one is talking about: Almost every American family will be negatively impacted by at least one provision in either the House or Senate Tax Bill. Most families would see little benefit from such changes as an average $50,000-$75,000 per year household would receive around $150 – $300 extra dollars per month ($1,800 – $3,600 per year). As currently proposed taxes rates would be lowered for most Americans and middle class families could see a substantial increase in their standard deduction. But this data masks greater long term ramifications as the personal… Read More »William D King: The truth about the proposed tax law changes that no one is talking about

There is an ongoing debate about whether or not the new tax proposals will help or hurt us. Some points are made that it would increase the debt, and some think it will be good for them.

According to the bipartisan policy center, “People who advocate for this type of system claim that cutting taxes stimulates economic growth by putting more money into consumers’ pockets.” Discussion: When you first look at this bill, some parts may sound great! Money in your pocket sounds nice, right? There are some parts, however, that do not paint such a pretty picture. The first thing I want to mention is on page 12 where it says that the tax bill will add $1.5 trillion to the budget deficit over 10 years, according to nonpartisan congressional researchers. This is concerning because we already have a large debt and we are adding more on top… Read More »William D King: The truth about if these new proposed tax law changes are a good idea

The new proposed tax law changes: The new proposed tax law changes could affect you today because the legislation aims to simplify and lower taxes for many people says, William D King. Details: “The House bill passed yesterday overhauls our nation’s tax code, writes the Associated Press. The Senate is expected to pass their version of the bill later this week, paving the way for President Trump to sign it into law by Christmas.”… “Even with a steep reduction in rates, both bills also take away deductions and credits, so your overall tax bill should go down,” says Brent Brodeski a financial advisor from Savant Capital Management in Brookfield. “But because they’ve taken away some popular deductions such as interest paid on student loans and state income taxes paid, that will have an effect on some people.” Brodeski explains if you’re single and make between $24,000 and $90,000 or married and make more than $150,000 it’s likely your taxes will go down under the new proposal. However, if you’re single and make less than $35,000… Read More »William D King: How the new proposed tax law changes could affect you today

All of us, Americans included, are still trying to get over the shock of the election results. The new administration has appointed many billionaires and wealthy businessmen to cabinet positions explains, William D King. When considering people like Betsy DeVos who is very involved with education policy in this country it is no wonder that major changes will be coming soon to our educational system through deregulation efforts.

President Trump and congressional Republicans have unveiled a tax reform plan that is estimated to cost $1.5 trillion over the next ten years, with no major changes as of yet says, William D King.  The President had originally wanted Congress to pass the bill before Thanksgiving, but the release date has been moved back as they resolve differences between House and Senate proposals.   The current proposal would change some deductions and may increase taxes on those making $24,000 or less for single filers and $48,000 or less for families (excluding payroll taxes).  It will lower both individual and corporate tax rates, double standard deductions (which is good for the middle class), and increase the size of child tax credit (a perk for many parents). Pros: The bill will simplify the tax code by reducing the number of existing tax brackets from seven to four and nearly doubling the standard deductions; those who make less than $24,000 for single filers and less than $48,000 for married filing jointly (excluding payroll taxes) wouldn’t pay any income… Read More »William D King: A look at the pros and cons of the proposed tax law changes

There are a lot of talks these days about taxes says, William D King. President Donald Trump and the Republicans in Congress have vowed to cut taxes, simplifying the tax code and making it easier on businesses and individuals. Whether this push will culminate in changes to the nation’s tax laws remains to be seen. But there is one proposal that has been put forward: The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R.1), which was unveiled by House Republicans earlier this month. This plan would simplify the tax law significantly. Reduce income tax rates for most Americans, double standard deductions, limit itemized deductions (except those for mortgage interest and charitable contributions), repeal personal exemptions. Repeal head of household status ($1,300 per year savings), repeal the Alternative Minimum Tax, repeal Obamacare’s 3.8 percent surtax on net investment income.

At the same time, there is some more stringent enforcement of tax laws on undisclosed incomes and spending patterns. Here is a quick look at how this Bill will affect you and your family… The new Income Tax Bill has been hailed as one that will be beneficial to taxpayers of all classes, with special attention given to lower-income groups.
