NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
Nov. 5 should be on your radar, and here’s why:
On that day, the Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments regarding the legality of President Donald Trump’s broad interpretation of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to enact tariffs.
Depending on the outcome, the U.S. may need to refund about half of its tariff income from this year — which is more than $150 billion, according to the White House.
Should such tariff refunds be required, what does that mean, exactly? We break it down for you.
Read our top story to learn about how the transactions might work, whether IEEPA tariff refunds might differ from typical procedures and how you can prepare. We hope you find it helpful!
Until next time,
