QBI deduction (20% pass-through)

Up to 20% of business income

Can You Write Off QBI Deduction?

Short answer: Yes: owners of pass-through businesses can deduct up to 20% of qualified business income, and the 2025 law made it permanent.

Higher earners in service businesses face phase-outs; a new $400 minimum applies from 2026 for active owners with at least $1,000 of QBI.

Records to keep: Keep receipts or invoices, proof of payment, and a short note of the business purpose.
