Key Takeaways:

  • Inflation Adjustments: As you can see, the income thresholds for each tax bracket are slightly higher in 2025 compared to 2024. This is due to annual adjustments the IRS makes to account for inflation.
  • Tax Rates Remain the Same: The actual tax rates for each bracket (10%, 12%, 22%, etc.) haven’t changed between 2024 and 2025. This is because those rates were set by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which is still in effect.

Important Reminders:

  • These are just the federal income tax brackets. Don’t forget that your state might also have its own income tax.
  • Tax laws can be complex, and these brackets are just one piece of the puzzle. It’s always a good idea to consult a tax professional or use reputable tax software for personalized advice.
