1 Overview CPE credit | Taxes

The law commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) introduced Section 174A, a new provision permitting immediate deduction of domestic research and experimental expenditures—or election to amortize them over at least 60 months. During this webcast, we’ll discuss:

  • Impact on foreign-derived deduction eligible income starting in 2026
  • Considerations and complexities around the section 59(e) and 60-month amortization elections
  • Key takeaways from recent procedural guidance
  • Interpretive issues under the OBBBA transition rule
  • Section 41(d)(1)(A) amendment that may affect foreign-funded research credit eligibility
  • International and state-specific considerations

Participants will evaluate the shift from mandatory capitalization rules and how these changes may impact certain taxpayers.
