The IRS has released the new income limits for federal income tax brackets for the tax year 2026.
The brackets you fall into determine how much you owe at tax time. For 2025 returns, which will be filed in 2026, there are seven tax rates: 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35% and 37%.
Those tax rates will remain the same for 2026 returns (filed in 2027), but the IRS annually adjusts the income range for each rate to account for inflation.
Depending on how much you make and your filing status, parts of your earnings will likely fall under different tax rates.
Here are the income ranges for tax brackets for tax year 2026, as well as changes to the standard deduction.
