Inflation Reduction Act

As you know, the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law.

Several tax and health care benefits contained in the bill may positively impact your family and/or business.

Highlights include:

New and expanded federal tax credits for buying a new or used clean fuel vehicle (e.g., electric or hybrid plug-in) for either personal or business use;

Significantly increasing the tax credits available for making your home (including second or vacation homes) and business property more energy-efficient, as well as providing new rebates to assist qualified homeowners in covering their upfront costs;

Allowing households with incomes of up to $111,000 (for a family of four) to cap their insurance premium costs at 8.5% of their income if they don't have "affordable" employer-provided insurance and buy their insurance through Covered California or another state's health care exchange;

Providing expanded and increased tax credits for businesses involved in the clean energy industry to encourage the development or expansion of more clean energy businesses (e.g., solar or wind farms); and

Limiting Medicare premium increases and out-of-pocket prescription drug costs for Medicare recipients.

Each of these tax benefits contains precise requirements to be met to claim them.
