Join McGuire Sponsel’s Dave McGuire and David Seibel, EA, for a technical, post–tax season webinar focused on the legislative developments and planning implications emerging from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and related IRS guidance.
We break down key provisions and guidance impacting 2026 planning, including bonus depreciation updates, Qualified Production Property (QPP) under §168(n), evolving R&D rules under §174, interest limitation considerations under §163(j), energy-related incentives, international tax updates, and property tax considerations. Particular emphasis will be placed on time-sensitive elections, filing positions, and method considerations that may require action in the coming weeks and months.
Rather than focusing on general trends, this session will provide a practical, legislation-driven framework to help firms identify where immediate opportunities exist—and where inaction could result in missed benefits.
Attendees will walk away with a clearer understanding of how recent guidance is reshaping advisory conversations and how to proactively position their firm and clients for the remainder of 2026.
