IRS Raises Tax Brackets to Counter Inflation in 2024
In 2024, the IRS will raise tax brackets by 5.4%, reducing tax liabilities for more Americans. This January modification to federal income tax rates and basic deductions tries to insulate people from IRS claims.
The November revisions address inflation’s erosion of income increases. The IRS plans to raise tax rates and basic deductions to help American workers keep more of their paychecks despite strong inflation, which exceeds the Federal Reserve’s objective.
