ARLINGTON, Va., September 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Bloomberg Tax today released its projected U.S. tax rates for 2023, which projects inflation-adjusted amounts in the tax code will increase by approximately 7.1% from 2022, more than double last year’s 3% increase. Bloomberg Tax also predicts that several key deductions for taxpayers will see notable year-over-year increases, with the exclusion of foreign-earned income rising to $120,000 of $112,000 and the annual exclusion for gifts of up to $17,000 of $16,000thus allowing taxpayers to increase their donations without tax consequences.
Published annually, Bloomberg Tax’s Projected U.S. Tax Rates report provides early and accurate notice of the potential tax savings that could be realized due to increased deduction limits, upward adjustments to tax brackets and increases to many other key thresholds. The full report is available at http://onb-tax.com/xuQh50KHZ18.
“We expect the inflation-adjusted amounts in the tax code to increase significantly in 2023 compared to previous years due to the economic environment,” said Heather Rothmann, vice president, analytics and content, Bloomberg Tax. “Taxpayers and advisors can use our projections to begin their 2023 tax planning before the IRS releases the official 2023 inflation-adjusted amounts later this year.”
The report also accounts for changes made under the recently enacted Cut Inflation Act, including increasing the §179D deduction for energy-efficient commercial building properties if new wage requirements and apprenticeships are met, which may attract a more sophisticated type of worker for companies using this tax incentive.
Other key adjustments, with comparisons of 2022 amounts and 2023 projections, include:
