Adjusted income limits should make it easier for you to determine how much you owe. It should also make it easier and faster for the IRS to process tax returns, and it will allow you to pay less in taxes.

How do income limits work in the US?

The United States has a so-called differentiated or progressive tax system. This is the opposite of a flat tax rate or system.

You are taxed at different rates depending on how much you earn each year. The current rates are 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35% and 37%. They are called limits or thresholds.

How different will 2023 tax rates be from 2022 rates?

In 2023, the amount of money you can get before you move up to a higher tax bracket will increase. This is good news for you, as you will probably have to pay less taxes even if you make more money next year.

Again, the reason the federal government wants to make this change is to simplify the tax code as well as provide relief to families and individuals who are struggling due to inflation. The cost of many goods and services is rising, and this action should help counteract this.

An example of this change

Let's look at an example of how your tax rate in 2022 might differ from your next year's tax rate. In 2022, for example, you file alone and earn $41. That's as much as you can earn to qualify for the category where you have to pay 776% in taxes.

You can earn up to $2023 in 44 and you will still be eligible for that 726 percent cap. This means you can earn an extra $22 and pay no more taxes in 2950 than you did in 2023.

You can keep these savings in any of the tax brackets. The more money you make, the more you can potentially save under the new tax code.

What if you are applying jointly?

If you're filing jointly, you can still take advantage of changes to income limits next year. For example, using the 22% tax rate again as a limit, if you file jointly in 2022, you can stay within that limit up to $83. Next year you can receive a combined amount of up to $551 and stay in that 89 percent group. . The difference is $451.

These changes mean you save more of your money.

This may all seem a little confusing, but the bottom line is that when the IRS changes the tax code next year and adjusts each of the limits, you will be able to save more of your money. Regardless of which adjusted tax bracket you fall into, you will be paid less by the IRS.
