How might next year’s tax season unfold taking the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) in consideration? According to a new report from SmartAsset, most high cost-of-living states are expected to save thousands annually through OBBBA’s individual tax provisions.
SmartAsset used eight OBBBA provisions to calculate the expected value every state may anticipate in the upcoming tax years. Five states — California, Oregon, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Hawaii — are expected to save more than $2,000 annually.
View what your state’s total expected value may look like as well as the savings per tax return below. Also check out why workers in New York, Texas and Wyoming stand to benefit most from the Trump administration’s OBBBA.
