Non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.

An statement isn't correct or incorrect because of the person making it. Suggesting it is is ad-hominem.

And what the CBO did, while non-partisan (and in fact legally required of them) is lousy analysis, with a methodology that obviously doesn't fit this bill.

The bill includes 6 years of spending set off by 10 years of taxes. Not hard to show a 10 year reduction in the deficit when you do it that way. But it will increase the deficit in any particular year except the first four.
