Review your business expenses before year end

The IRS recently issued its 2026 cost-of-living adjustments for more than 60 tax provisions. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) makes permanent or amends many provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). It also makes permanent most TCJA changes to various deductions and makes new changes to some deductions. OBBBA-affected changes have been noted throughout. As you implement 2025 year-end tax planning strategies, be sure to take these 2026 numbers into account. Individual income tax rates Tax-bracket thresholds increase for each filing status, but because they’re based on percentages, they increase more significantly for the higher brackets. For example, the top of the 10% bracket will increase by $475–$950, depending on filing status, but the top of the 35% bracket will increase by $8,550–$17,100, depending on filing status.

A do-it-yourself (DIY) estate plan may seem appealing to those who feel confident managing their own affairs and want to save money. With the abundance of online templates and legal software, it’s easier than ever to draft a will, establish powers of attorney or create a trust without professional help. However, there are significant drawbacks to consider. Online tools vs. professional guidance Estate planning is a legal matter, and small mistakes can result in major unintended consequences. Errors in wording, missing signatures or failure to meet state-specific requirements can render documents invalid or lead to disputes among heirs. DIY tools often provide limited customization, which can be problematic for blended families, business owners or those with special needs beneficiaries. Additionally, these online platforms can’t provide personalized advice or foresee complex tax implications the way experienced estate planning attorneys and tax professionals can. Although online tools can help you create individual documents — the good ones can even help you comply with applicable laws, such as ensuring the right number of witnesses to your will — they can’t help you create an estate plan. Putting together a plan means determining your objectives and coordinating a collection of carefully drafted documents designed to achieve those objectives. And in most cases, that requires professional guidance. For example, let’s suppose Anna’s estate consists of a home valued at $1 million and an investment account with a $1 million balance. She uses a DIY tool to create a will that leaves the home to her son and the investment account to her daughter. On the surface, this seems like a fair arrangement. But suppose that by the time Anna dies, she’s sold the home and invested the proceeds in her investment account. Unless she amended her will, she’ll have inadvertently disinherited her son. An experienced estate planning advisor would have anticipated such contingencies and ensured that Anna’s plan treated both children fairly, regardless of the specific assets in her estate. DIY tools also fall short when a decision demands a professional’s experience rather than mere technical expertise. Online tools make it easy to name a guardian for your minor children, for example, but they can’t help you evaluate the many characteristics and factors that go into selecting the best candidate. Don’t try this at home Ultimately, while a DIY estate plan may be better than having no plan at all, it carries considerable risks. Professional guidance ensures your wishes are properly documented and legally sound, reducing the likelihood of costly mistakes or family conflicts. For most people, consulting a qualified estate planning advisor, including an attorney and a CPA who understands estate tax law, is a worthwhile investment in protecting one’s legacy and loved ones’ peace of mind. © 2025 

In a business context, a wellness program is an employer-sponsored initiative designed to promote employees’ physical, mental and emotional well-being. These programs can take many forms, but their underlying goal is generally the same: to foster a healthier, more productive workplace. A well-structured wellness program can also help companies manage health care benefits costs, reduce absenteeism, improve employee retention and enhance company culture. Whether your business has a program in place or is considering rolling one out, here are some fundamental building blocks to help ensure your approach is effective, practical and sustainable. Straightforward design Imagine a company introducing its new employee wellness program with an email that reads, “Welcome aboard! Attached is a 200-page guide, featuring a complex point system that will determine whether you qualify for incentives and a lengthy glossary of medical terminology.” See the problem? The quickest way to derail participation is by overcomplicating the rollout. Granted, any type of wellness program will inevitably have a learning curve. But the simpler the design, the easier it will be to explain and implement. Remember that you can update and increase a program’s complexity as it becomes more ingrained in your business’s culture. Clear communication Strong program communication is also paramount. Write, format and organize materials clearly and concisely. Be creative with the design and language to capture employees’ interest. Just keep in mind that the content must be sensitive to the fact that the program addresses inherently personal issues of health and well-being. If you don’t have anyone in-house who can handle these criteria, consider engaging a consultant. In addition, ask your attorney to review all program materials for compliance purposes. Well-vetted vendors For most companies, outside vendors provide the bulk of wellness program services and activities. These may include: Seminars on healthy life and work habits, Smoking cessation workshops, Fitness coaching, Healthful food options in the break room and cafeteria, and Runs, walks or other friendly competitive or charitable events. It’s critical to thoroughly vet providers and engage only those that are skilled and qualified. Neglecting to do so could mean that, even if you create and communicate a solid program, it will likely fail once employees show up to participate and are disappointed by the experience. Quality partnerships build credibility — and lasting engagement. A strategic investment Developing a wellness program may be a wise decision for both your employees and business. If you’re just getting started, build it on the fundamentals mentioned. And if you already have a program up and running, closely monitor participation and outcomes so you can make informed adjustments that enhance its long-term value. We’d be happy to help you establish a realistic budget, identify potential tax advantages and measure the financial return on your investment. © 2025 

If you pay more than $10,000 in state and local taxes (SALT), a provision of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) could significantly reduce your 2025 federal income tax liability. However, you need to be aware of income-based limits, and you may need to take steps before year end to maximize your deduction. Higher deduction limit Deductible SALT expenses include property taxes (for homes, vehicles and boats) and either income tax or sales tax, but not both. Historically, eligible SALT expenses were generally 100% deductible on federal income tax returns if an individual itemized deductions. This provided substantial tax savings to many taxpayers in locations with higher income or property tax rates (or higher home values), as well as those who owned both a primary residence and one or more vacation homes. Beginning in 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) limited the deduction to $10,000 ($5,000 for married couples filing separately). This SALT cap was scheduled to expire after 2025. Rather than letting the $10,000 cap expire or immediately making it permanent, the OBBBA temporarily quadruples the limit. Beginning in 2025, taxpayers can deduct up to $40,000 ($20,000 for married couples filing separately), with 1% increases each subsequent year. Then in 2030, the OBBBA reinstates the $10,000 cap. The increased SALT cap could lead to major tax savings compared with the $10,000 cap. For example, a single taxpayer in the 35% tax bracket with $40,000 in SALT expenses could save an additional $10,500 in taxes [35% × ($40,000 − $10,000)]. Income-based reduction While the higher limit is in place, it’s reduced for taxpayers with incomes above a certain level. The allowable deduction drops by 30% of the amount by which modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) exceeds a threshold amount. For 2025, the threshold is $500,000; when MAGI reaches $600,000, the previous $10,000 cap applies. (These amounts are halved for separate filers.) The MAGI threshold will also increase 1% each year through 2029. Here’s how the earlier example would be different if the taxpayer’s MAGI exceeded the threshold: Let’s say MAGI is $550,000, which is $50,000 over the 2025 threshold. The cap would be reduced by $15,000 (30% × $50,000), leaving a maximum SALT deduction of $25,000 ($40,000 − $15,000). Even reduced, that’s more than twice what would be permitted under the $10,000 cap. The reduced deduction would still save an additional $5,250 in taxes [35% × ($25,000 − $10,000) compared to when the $10,000 cap applied. Itemizing vs. the standard deduction The SALT deduction is available only to taxpayers who itemize their deductions. The TCJA nearly doubled the standard deduction. As a result of that change and the $10,000 SALT cap, the number of taxpayers who itemize dropped substantially. And, under the OBBBA, the standard deduction is even higher — for 2025, it’s $15,750 for single and separate filers, $23,625 for head of household filers, and $31,500 for married couples filing jointly. But the higher SALT cap might make it worthwhile for some taxpayers who’ve been claiming the standard deduction post-TCJA to start itemizing again. Consider, for example, a taxpayer who pays high state income tax. If that amount combined with other itemized deductions (generally, certain medical and dental expenses, home mortgage interest, qualified casualty losses, and charitable contributions) exceeds the applicable standard deduction, the taxpayer will save more tax by itemizing. Year-end strategies Here are two strategies that might help you maximize your 2025 SALT deduction: 1. Reduce your MAGI. If it’s nearing the threshold that would reduce your deduction or already over it, you can take steps to stay out of the danger zone. For example, you can make or increase pretax retirement plan and Health Savings Account contributions. Likewise, you can avoid moves that increase your MAGI, like Roth IRA conversions, nonrequired traditional retirement plan distributions and asset sales that result in large capital gains. 2. Accelerate property tax deductions. If your SALT expenses are less than $40,000 and your MAGI is below the reduction threshold for 2025, for example, you might prepay your 2026 property tax bill this year. (This assumes the amount has been assessed — you can’t deduct a prepayment based only on your estimate.) Plan carefully In your SALT planning, also be aware that SALT expenses aren’t deductible for purposes of the alternative minimum tax (AMT). A large SALT deduction could have the unintended effect of triggering the AMT, particularly after 2025. Under the right circumstances, the increase to the SALT deduction cap can be a valuable tax saver. But careful planning is essential.

Commercial real estate usually must be depreciated over 39 years. But certain real estate improvements — specifically, qualified improvement property (QIP) — are eligible for accelerated depreciation and can even be fully deducted immediately. While maximizing first-year depreciation is often beneficial, it’s not always the best tax move. QIP defined QIP includes any improvement to an interior portion of a nonresidential building that’s placed in service after the date the building was placed in service. But expenditures attributable to the enlargement of the building, any elevator or escalator, or the building’s internal structural framework don’t count as QIP. QIP has a 15-year depreciation period. It’s also eligible for bonus depreciation and Section 179 expensing. 100% bonus depreciation Additional first-year bonus depreciation is available for eligible assets, including QIP. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), signed into law in July, increases bonus depreciation to 100% for assets acquired and placed in service after Jan. 19, 2025. It also makes 100% bonus depreciation permanent. But be aware that bonus depreciation is only 40% for assets acquired Jan. 1, 2025, through Jan. 19, 2025, and placed in service any time in 2025. So, if your objective is to maximize first-year deductions on QIP acquired during that period, you’d claim the Sec. 179 deduction first. (See below.) If you max out on that, then you’d claim 40% first-year bonus depreciation. In some cases, a business may not be eligible for bonus depreciation. Examples include real estate businesses that elect to deduct 100% of their business interest expense and dealerships with floor-plan financing — if they have average annual gross receipts exceeding $31 million for the previous three tax years. Sec. 179 expensing Similar to 100% bonus depreciation, Sec. 179 expensing allows you to immediately deduct (rather than depreciate over a number of years) the cost of purchasing eligible assets, including QIP. But the break is subject to annual dollar limits, which the OBBBA increases. For qualifying assets placed in service in tax years beginning in 2025, the maximum allowable Section 179 depreciation deduction is $2.5 million (up from $1.25 million before the OBBBA). In addition, the break begins to phase out dollar-for-dollar when asset acquisitions for the year exceed $4 million (up from $3.13 million before the OBBBA). These amounts will continue to be annually adjusted for inflation after 2025. Another restriction is that you can claim Sec. 179 expensing only to offset net income. The deduction can’t reduce net income below zero to create an overall business tax loss. One advantage over bonus depreciation is that, for Sec. 179 expensing purposes, QIP also includes HVAC systems, nonresidential building roofs, fire protection and alarm systems, and security systems that are placed in service after the building is first placed in service. Spreading out QIP depreciation There are a few reasons why it may be more beneficial to spread out QIP depreciation over 15 years rather than claiming large first-year depreciation deductions: Bonus depreciation can trigger the excess business loss rule. Although you can claim 100% first-year bonus depreciation even if it will create a tax loss, you could inadvertently trigger the excess business loss rule. The rule limits deductions for current-year business losses incurred by noncorporate taxpayers: Such losses generally can offset income from other sources, such as salary, self-employment income, interest, dividends and capital gains, only up to the applicable limit. For 2025, the limit is $313,000 ($626,000 for a married joint filer). As a result, your 100% first-year bonus depreciation deduction might effectively be limited by the excess business loss rule. However, any excess business loss is carried over to the following tax year and can then be deducted under the rules for net operating loss carryforwards. Large first-year deductions can result in higher-taxed gain when QIP is sold. First-year bonus depreciation and Sec. 179 deductions claimed for QIP can create depreciation recapture that’s taxed at your ordinary income rate when the QIP is sold. Under rates made permanent by the OBBBA, the maximum individual rate on ordinary income is 37%. You may also owe the 3.8% net investment income tax (NIIT). On the other hand, for QIP held for more than one year, gain attributable to straight-line depreciation is taxed at an individual federal rate of only 25%, plus the 3.8% NIIT if applicable. Depreciation deductions may be worth more in the future. When you claim big first-year depreciation deductions for QIP, your depreciation deductions for future years are reduced accordingly. If you’re in a higher income tax bracket in the future or federal income tax rates go up, you’ll have effectively traded potentially more valuable future-year depreciation deductions for less-valuable first-year deductions. Keep in mind that, while the OBBBA did “permanently” extend current rates, that only means they have no expiration date. Lawmakers could still increase rates in the future. What’s best for you Many factors must be considered before deciding whether to maximize QIP first-year depreciation deductions or spread out the deductions over multiple years. We can help you determine what’s best for your situation. © 2025 

Your estate planning goals likely revolve around your family, including both current and future generations. But don’t forget to take yourself into consideration. What if you become incapacitated and are unable to make financial decisions? A crucial component to include in your estate plan is a financial power of attorney (POA). What’s a financial POA? Without a POA, if you become incapacitated because of an accident or illness, your loved ones won’t be able to manage your finances without going through the lengthy and expensive process of petitioning the court for guardianship or conservatorship. Executing a financial POA, also known as a POA for property, protects your family from having to go through this process and helps ensure financial decisions and tasks won’t fall through the cracks. This document appoints a trusted representative (often called an “agent”) to make financial decisions on your behalf. It authorizes your agent to manage your investments, pay your bills, file tax returns and otherwise handle your finances, within the limits you set. Differences between springing and durable POAs One important decision you’ll need to make is whether your POA should be “springing” — effective when certain conditions are met — or nonspringing (also known as “durable”), which is effective immediately. A springing POA activates under certain conditions, typically when you become incapacitated and can no longer act for yourself. In most cases, to act on your behalf, your agent must present a financial institution or other third party with the POA as well as a written certification from a licensed physician stating that you’re unable to manage your financial affairs. While a springing POA lets you retain full control over your finances while you’re able, a durable POA offers some distinct advantages: It takes effect immediately, allowing your agent to act on your behalf for your convenience, not just when you’re incapacitated. If you do become incapacitated, it allows your agent to act quickly on your behalf to handle urgent financial matters without the need for a physician to certify that you’ve become incapacitated. With a springing POA, the physician certification requirement can lead to delays, disputes or even litigation at a time when quick, decisive action is critical. It may also be advantageous for elderly individuals who are mentally capable of handling their affairs but prefer to have assistance. Durable POAs have one potential disadvantage that must be considered: You might be uncomfortable with a POA that takes effect immediately because you’re concerned that your agent may be tempted to abuse his or her authority. However, if you can’t fully trust someone with an immediate POA, it’s even riskier to rely on that person when you’re incapacitated and unable to protect yourself. In light of the advantages of durable POAs and the potential delays caused by springing POAs, consider granting a durable POA to someone you trust completely, such as your spouse or one of your children. If you’d like added security, you could ask your attorney or another trusted advisor to hold the durable POA and deliver it to the designated agent only when you instruct them to do so or you become incapacitated. Revisit and update your POAs A critical estate planning companion to a financial POA is a health care POA (also known as a health care proxy). It gives a trusted person the power to make health care decisions for you. To ensure that your financial and health care wishes are carried out, consider preparing and signing both types of POA as soon as possible. Also, don’t forget to let your family know how to gain access to the POAs in case of an emergency. Finally, financial institutions and health care providers may be reluctant to honor a POA that was executed years or decades earlier. So, it’s a good idea to sign new POAs periodically. Contact us with any questions regarding POAs. © 2025 

Launching a new business brings tough decisions. And that holds true whether you’re a fledgling entrepreneur starting your first company or an experienced businessperson expanding into a second or third enterprise. Among the most important calls you’ll need to make is how to structure the start-up for tax purposes. For many business owners, electing S corporation status is a savvy move. But it’s not right for everyone. Here are some important points to consider before you decide. What’s it all about? An S corporation is a tax election available only to certain U.S. companies. To make the election, you’ll need to file IRS Form 2553, “Election by a Small Business Corporation,” typically within 75 days of forming the business or the start of the tax year to which you want the election to apply. If you elect S corporation status, the IRS will treat your start-up as a “pass-through” entity. This means the business generally won’t pay federal income taxes. Instead, profits and losses will pass through to your individual tax return and those of other shareholders. As a result, you’ll avoid the “double taxation” faced by shareholders of C corporations — whereby the company pays taxes on the business’s income and then shareholders pay tax on any dividends received. In addition, S corporation shareholders may be eligible for the Section 199A qualified business income deduction for pass-through entity owners. It was recently made permanent under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Which businesses qualify? IRS rules limit which companies can elect S corporation status. To qualify, your start-up must: Be an eligible domestic corporation or limited liability company (LLC), Have no more than 100 shareholders who must be U.S. citizens or residents (certain trusts and estates may also be eligible), and Offer only one class of stock. Insurance companies, financial institutions using the reserve method of accounting and domestic international sales corporations are generally ineligible. Why do it? As mentioned above, the main advantage of electing S corporation vs. C corporation status is avoiding double taxation. But there are other reasons to do it. For example, many start-ups incur losses in their first few years. S corporation status allows owners to offset other income with those losses, a tax benefit that’s unavailable to C corporation shareholders. S corporations also have advantages over other types of pass-through entities. Generally, all trade or business income that flows through to sole proprietors and partners in partnerships is subject to self-employment taxes — even if the income isn’t actually distributed to the owners. S corporations can divide their income into shareholder-employee salaries and distributions. The salary portion is subject to payroll taxes, but distributions aren’t. So, by drawing a smaller salary (but one that’s reasonable in the eyes of the IRS) and taking the remainder as distributions, S corporation shareholder-employees can reduce their overall tax burden.  Liability protection is another advantage S corporations have over sole proprietorships and partnerships. S corporation status shields shareholders’ personal assets from business debts and legal claims, provided applicable rules are followed. Operating as an S corporation can also make your new business appear more credible to lenders, investors and customers because of its formalized, protective framework. What are the drawbacks? Electing to be treated as an S corporation has its drawbacks. Your start-up will have to follow strict IRS rules, which include keeping up with filing requirements and maintaining accurate financial records. Failure to comply could lead to back taxes, interest and penalties. It could even mean losing your S corporation status in a worst-case scenario. Indeed, S corporations tend to incur higher administrative expenses than other pass-through entities. You’ll need to file corporate tax returns and meet state-level requirements. The extra complexity may outweigh the tax advantages — especially for newly launched companies with little to no profits. Finally, it bears repeating: Although the salary/distributions income-splitting strategy mentioned above is advantageous, it can draw IRS scrutiny. Paying shareholder-employees an unreasonably low salary to avoid payroll taxes could trigger an audit with negative consequences. Who can help? Congratulations and best wishes on your forthcoming start-up! Electing S corporation status may be the right way to go. However, you’ll need to assess a wide variety of factors, including projected profits, the number of shareholders and your comfort level with the administrative requirements. Before you do anything, contact us. We can help you evaluate whether operating as an S corporation aligns with your strategic and financial goals. If it does, we’d be happy to assist you with the filing process and compliance going forward. © 2025

Saving taxes probably isn’t your primary reason for supporting your favorite charities. But tax deductions can be a valuable added benefit. If you donate long-term appreciated stock, you potentially can save even more. Not just a deduction Appreciated publicly traded stock you’ve held more than one year is long-term capital gains property. If you donate it to a qualified charity, you may be able to enjoy two tax benefits. First, if you itemize deductions, you can claim a charitable deduction equal to the stock’s fair market value. Second, you won’t be subject to the capital gains tax you’d owe if you sold the stock. Donating appreciated stock can be especially beneficial to taxpayers facing the 3.8% net investment income tax (NIIT) or the top 20% long-term capital gains rate this year. The strategy in action Let’s say you donate $15,000 of stock that you paid $5,000 for, your ordinary-income tax rate is 37% and your long-term capital gains rate is 20%. Let’s also say you itemize deductions. If you sold the stock, you’d pay $2,000 in tax on the $10,000 gain. If you were also subject to the 3.8% NIIT, you’d pay another $380 in NIIT. By instead donating the stock to charity, you save $7,930 in federal tax ($2,380 in capital gains tax and NIIT plus $5,550 from the $15,000 income tax deduction). If you donated $15,000 in cash, your federal tax savings would be only $5,550. 3 important considerations There are a few things to keep in mind when considering a stock donation: 1. The charitable deduction will provide a tax benefit only if your total itemized deductions exceed your standard deduction. For 2025, the standard deduction is $15,750 for singles and married couples filing separately, $23,625 for heads of households, and $31,500 for married couples filing jointly. 2. Donations of long-term capital gains property are subject to tighter deduction limits. The limits are 30% of your adjusted gross income for gifts to public charities and 20% for gifts to nonoperating private foundations (compared to 60% and 30%, respectively, for cash donations). 3. Don’t donate stock that’s worth less than your basis. Instead, sell the stock so you can deduct the loss and then donate the cash proceeds to charity.  A tried-and-true year-end tax strategy If you expect to itemize deductions on your 2025 tax return, making charitable gifts by December 31 is a great way to reduce your tax liability. And donating highly appreciated stock you’ve hesitated to sell because of the tax cost can be an especially smart year-end strategy.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), signed into law July 4, 2025, extends or enhances many tax breaks for businesses. But the legislation terminates several business-related clean energy tax incentives earlier than scheduled. For example, the Qualified Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit (Section 45W) had been scheduled to expire after 2032. Under the OBBBA, it’s available only for vehicles that were acquired on or before September 30, 2025. For other clean energy breaks, businesses can still take advantage of them if they act soon. Deduction for energy-efficient building improvements The Section 179D deduction allows owners of new or existing commercial buildings to immediately deduct the cost of certain energy-efficient improvements rather than depreciate them over the 39-year period that typically applies. The OBBBA terminates the Sec. 179D deduction for property beginning construction after June 30, 2026. Besides commercial building owners, eligible taxpayers include: Tenants and real estate investment trusts (REITs) that make qualifying improvements, and Certain designers — such as architects and engineers — of government-owned buildings and buildings owned by nonprofit organizations, religious organizations, tribal organizations, and nonprofit schools or universities. The Sec. 179D deduction is available for new construction as well as additions to or renovations of commercial buildings of any size. (Multifamily residential rental buildings that are at least four stories above grade also qualify.) Eligible improvements include depreciable property installed as part of a building’s interior lighting system, HVAC and hot water systems, or the building envelope. To be eligible, an improvement must be part of a plan designed to reduce annual energy and power costs by at least 25% relative to applicable industry standards, as certified by an independent contractor or licensed engineer. The base deduction is calculated using a sliding scale, ranging from 50 cents per square foot for improvements that achieve 25% energy savings to $1 per square foot for improvements that achieve 50% energy savings. Projects that meet specific prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements are eligible for bonus deductions. Such deductions range from $2.50 per square foot for improvements that achieve 25% energy savings to $5 per square foot for improvements that achieve 50% energy savings. Other clean energy tax breaks for businesses Here are some additional clean energy breaks affected by the OBBBA: Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (Section 30C). The OBBBA eliminates the credit for property placed in service after June 30, 2026. (The credit had been scheduled to sunset after 2032.) Property that stores or dispenses clean-burning fuel or recharges electric vehicles is eligible. The credit is worth up to $100,000 per item (each charging port, fuel dispenser or storage property). Clean Electricity Investment Credit (Section 48E) and Clean Electricity Production Credit (Section 45Y). The OBBBA eliminates these tax credits for wind and solar facilities placed in service after 2027, unless construction begins on or before July 4, 2026. Wind and solar projects begun after that date must be put in service by the end of 2027. Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit (Section 45X). Under the OBBBA, wind energy components won’t qualify for the credit after 2027. The legislation also modifies the credit in other ways. For example, it adds “metallurgical coal” suitable for the production of steel to the list of critical minerals. And, for critical materials other than metallurgical coal, the credit will now phase out from 2031 through 2033. The credit for metallurgical coal expires after 2029. Act soon Many of these clean energy breaks are disappearing years earlier than originally scheduled, leaving limited time for businesses to act. If your business has been exploring clean energy investments, now is the time to consider moving forward. We can help you evaluate eligibility, maximize available tax breaks and structure projects to meet applicable requirements before time runs out.
