In this intriguing article, the recent changes brought by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) are thoroughly examined. The Act has brought about significant modifications in the tax landscape, particularly for partnerships, S corporations, and sole proprietors. The key change being highlighted is the permanence of the 20% qualified business income deduction under section 199A, which was previously set to expire at the end of 2025.

It provides a detailed analysis on what these changes mean for businesses and offers guidance on what businesses should do now and consider over the long term.
