See the newest standard deductions, tax rates and retirement contribution limits.
Each year the IRS updates the amount allowed for standard deductions, tax rates and limits for retirement contributions and health savings accounts. Here are key adjustments for tax year 2025.
Standard deduction
The standard deduction is a flat rate that reduces taxable income and is designed to make calculating taxes easier. If you itemize deductions for things like mortgage interest and charitable donations you can’t take the standard deduction.
Standard deduction | 2025 | Change from last year |
Single taxpayer/Married filing separately | $15,000 | +$400 |
Married filing jointly | $30,000 | +$800 |
Head of household | $22,500 | +$600 |
Tax brackets
An individual’s income isn’t taxed at a single rate. Instead, each portion, or bracket, of one’s income is subject to a different rate. For example, a single taxpayer with an income of $75,000 would be taxed in three brackets:
- 10% bracket for the first $11,925
- 12% for earnings between $11,925 and $48,475, and
- 22% for earnings between $48,475 and $75,000
The 2025 federal tax brackets are broken by these income levels:
