Congress has extended many popular tax provisions that significantly impact individuals and businesses. Late on December 16, 2014, the Senate, following earlier action in the House of Representatives, voted 76 to 16 to pass an identical version of H.R. 5771, the Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2014 (2014 TIPA). This legislation renews, at least for tax year 2014, a retroactive extension of business and individual tax provisions that expired at the end of 2013, and comes just before taxpayers and the IRS gear up for the 2015 tax filing season.
