STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Tax season is almost here and that means it\u2019s time for millions of tax payers to learn what they should expect to pay for 2025.<\/p>\n

Each year the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) updates its tax brackets informing the public at what rate the agency will tax different tiers of income.<\/p>\n

According to the IRS, the top tax rate will be 37% for individual single taxpayers with incomes greater than $626,350 and $751,600 for married couples filing jointly). The other rates for 2025 income are:<\/p>\n

35% for incomes over $250,525 ($501,050 for married couples filing jointly).32% for incomes over $197,300 ($394,600 for married couples filing jointly).24% for incomes over $103,350 ($206,700 for married couples filing jointly).22% for incomes over $48,475 ($96,950 for married couples filing jointly).12% for incomes over $11,925 ($23,850 for married couples filing jointly).10% for incomes $11,925 or less ($23,850 or less for married couples filing jointly).<\/p>\n

The federal government taxes income at progressively higher rates meaning that every taxpayer pays the rate for their income that falls in each tax bracket.<\/p>\n

The IRS announced last week<\/a> that the opening for tax season this year would be Monday, Jan. 26.<\/p>\n

Tax brackets rise with inflation each year, so taxpayers\u2019 brackets for 2025 might be slightly different than what they saw for 2024 income.<\/p>\n

When the IRS announced the new brackets in October<\/a>, it also released information on the standard decutions, and are as listed:<\/p>\n
