What this amendment would do

This amendment would change section 70105 of the bill.

  • It would redefine the combined qualified business income amount as the sum of the taxpayer's qualified business income for each qualified trade or business, up to a limit of $25,000.

  • It would add a rule that reduces the combined qualified business income by the amount that the taxpayer's adjusted gross income, which is total income minus certain adjustments, exceeds $200,000 or $400,000 for a joint return.

  • It would change the definition of a qualified trade or business to include any trade or business except for performing services as an employee.

  • It would modify the definition of W-2 wages to exclude amounts that are not properly allocable to domestic production gross receipts or not included in a return filed with the Social Security Administration by a specific deadline.

  • It would direct the Secretary to provide rules for how this section applies during short taxable years or when a taxpayer acquires or disposes of a major portion of a trade or business.

  • These changes would apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.
