year-end tax planningFor most of the last decade, year-end tax planning has been complicated by a great deal of uncertainty. This year is no different.

As things now stand, dozens of favorable tax-law provisions that technically expired after 2014 are in limbo. Some or all of those provisions may be reinstated, even retroactive to the beginning of the year, if Congress enacts new legislation.
