The House's 5/22/25 and Senate's 6/28/25 versions of the One Big Beautiful Bill (H.R. 1) have varying effective dates both within the bill and between these versions for similar provisions. Also, some provisions in the House are temporary and most in the Senate are permanent.
But I want to highlight a few changes that would repeal provisions for individuals this year that were supposed to be in the law through 2032!
These provisions were set to expire after 2032 per changes made by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
Residential energy credits of Sections 25C and 25D (§25D was to phase out for 2033 and 2034):
House and Senate bills - these credits end for property placed in service after 12/31/25.
Used clean vehicle credit of Section 25E:
House bill - must acquire (take possession) by 12/31/25
Senate bill - must acquire by 9/30/25
New clean vehicle credit of Section 30D:
House bill - ends after 2025 but for 2026, limited to vehicles for which manufacturer produced no more than 200,000 vehicles.
Senate bill - must acquire by 9/30/25
So, it's important to watch for the effective date in the final bill. But, if someone is eligible and really wants the clean vehicle credit, best to assume it ends 9/30/25. And if you really want the solar panel credit of §25D (or other items it covers) or energy efficient doors, windows and other items of §25C, best to act now to be sure it is all installed by 12/31/25. While it is unlikely the new termination date will be later than 2025 for the residential energy credits given current versions of OBBB, you never know.
What do you think?
