The fiscal year 2017 ended on 9/30/2017, however. https://www.cbo.gov/publication/53286 Given the most common practice recently, that'll be Obama's last budget year. At least the deficit in fy2015 got down to under $460 billion before heading back up.

I don't think there were any (R) tax cuts that took effect for f/y 2015. I think the best we could come up with is weak "discretionary" enforcement of the ACA mandate.
