When Key Provisions in Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ Take Effect

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 12 – The bill raises the SALT deduction cap to $40,000 starting in 2025 with a phaseout for incomes over $500,000, potentially causing a 45.5% federal tax rate on earnings within that range.

  • Earlier this month, President Donald Trump's bill proposes raising the SALT deduction cap to $40,000 in 2025 with a 1% annual increase, potentially causing a 45.5% tax rate dubbed a 'SALT torpedo' for high earners.
  • Following the proposal, the SALT cap phases out between $500,000 and $600,000 MAGI, dropping from $40,000 to $10,000, creating a potential tax increase for high earners.
  • According to tax experts, earning an extra $100,000 can reduce SALT benefits by $30,000 at a 30% phaseout, raising taxable income and effective tax rates, experts say.
  • The phaseout could cause high-income taxpayers earning $500,000–$600,000 to face an effective tax rate of up to 45.5%, experts say.
  • In response to the SALT deduction phaseout, tax advisors suggest running MAGI projections and reconsidering Roth conversions to mitigate high effective tax rates for earners between $500,000 and $600,000.
