If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

PPP loans and EIDL grants will not be taxable and all associated expenses will be deductible. The forgiveness of the PPP loan will increase basis (as tax-exempt income), but not the receipt of the loan. Accordingly, S corporations should ensure that there is an adequate basis to take the losses related to the PPP expenditures.

Charitable Contribution
The above-the-line charitable contribution is extended through 2021 at $600 for those married filing jointly and $300 for other filers. This means taxpayers will be able to take the standard deduction and deduct up to $600 in charitable giving when calculating their taxable income. For the 2020 tax year, taxpayers could deduct up to $300 above-the-line for charitable contributions.
I was listening to a webinar just today for my CPE in which the presenter pointed out (not taking into account this bill) that joint returns do not get to double the $300. Does this bill change that to allow $600 for joint returns?

Expands stimulus payment eligibility to mixed-status households- previously households where only one parent is a US citizen/resident alien with a SSN were ineligible. This applies retroactively to the previous round as well.
Can someone please direct me to the clause about the retroactive part?
Thanks

Looks like it.

In the case of a return other than a joint return, the $1,200 amount in subsection (a)(1) shall be treated as being zero unless the taxpayer includes the valid identification number of the taxpayer on the return of tax for the taxable year.
‘‘(B) JOINT RETURNS.—In the case of a joint return, the $2,400 amount in subsection (a)(1) shall be treated as being— ‘‘(i) $1,200 if the valid identification number of only 1 spouse is included on the return of tax for the taxable year

Are you sure that the $600 charity is also for 2020 (not just 2021)?)

Trump will veto the bill until it's raised to $2000

The bill was voted in with veto-proof majority, wasn't it?

Less than the chance of all the garbage in the bill getting cut out.

Can we reintroduce the line item veto?

Gornisht mit nisht.
They'll override the veto and he'll sing from the rooftops that he wanted to help the American people, and Congress wasn't on board.
If he would've gone with 1200, he could have gotten traction- maybe. 2000 is him making a fuss with the knowledge that it won't pass.

That's no good. If the garbage stays, we deserve more that $600.
What's another 100 billion to the deficit?  :)

Not so simple. Many will feel pressure to back the President.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I’m assuming you never read the Art of the Deal 🙄
I never did either, but I assume it says to go twice as high as you really want and meet in the middle
