What happened
The Internal Revenue Service published Revenue Procedure 2025-32 on October 12, 2026. The procedure adjusted the taxable income thresholds for the seven federal income tax rates, while keeping the rates themselves unchanged. Additionally, the standard deduction was increased to $16,100 for single filers and $32,200 for married couples filing jointly.

Why it matters
The changes affect how income is taxed, helping to mitigate 'bracket creep'—the phenomenon where income increases push taxpayers into higher tax brackets even if their buying power remains stable. These adjustments impact how individuals calculate their tax bills.
