As we look ahead to 2026, major shifts are on the horizon for tax planning. The IRS recently released the official 2026 income tax brackets, reflecting changes implemented under the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” These adjustments will impact income earned in 2026, making proactive planning essential.

It's crucial to understand how these tax bracket changes might affect your financial strategy, especially if you're anticipating significant financial events like retirement, asset sales, or a boost in income. Taking action now can help optimize your long-term tax strategy and ensure you're prepared for these changes.
