Heads Up! The IRS has Unveiled the 2025 Tax Brackets and More!

November 07, 2024

The IRS has released the official tax brackets, standard deductions, and retirement contribution limits (we will cover contribution limits in another blog) for the 2025 tax year. While filing for 2025 won't happen for a while, it's never too early to start thinking ahead, especially with the expiration of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act at the end of 2025.

Here's a quick rundown of some fundamental changes:

  • Tax Brackets Adjusted for Inflation: Good news! Tax brackets have been adjusted upwards to account for inflation. This means you might pay less in taxes, depending on your income level.
  • Increased Standard Deduction: The standard deduction has gone up! Married couples filing jointly can now deduct up to $30,000, while single filers can deduct up to $15,000. This could significantly reduce your taxable income.
  • Higher Marginal Rates: The income thresholds for each tax bracket have also increased. This means the tax rate you pay may change depending on your income. *See the graphic at the top of this post for complete details.

More helpful information:

  • The annual gift tax exclusion has increased to $19,000.
  • The estate tax credit has also increased, allowing a higher inheritance amount to be excluded from taxation.
