The Twelve Days of Taxmas – Net Investment Income Tax Base

As Christmas approaches, Klatzkin is putting a twist on a holiday classic. But rather than filling your head with drummers drumming and golden rings, we’re focused on providing tips through “The Twelve Days of Taxmas” blog series that could help minimize your tax liability.
On the tenth day of Taxmas, Klatzkin gave to me a tip that the Build Back Better Act will likely expand the Net Investment Income Tax base.
The legislation, which is currently still being negotiated, will include a provision that income is derived from a trade or business where the taxpayer actively participates. The change would be effective for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income of $500,000 (Married filing joint). Therefore, taxpayers may want to consider deferring expenses to 2022 to lower any potential future tax.
