This list does not even take into account the Health Care Reform Taxes: Personal income Tax Increase.
The top income tax rate will rise from 35% to 39.6%. The lowest rate will rise from 10% to 15%. All the rates in between will also rise. Itemized deductions and personal exemptions will again phase out if you have "too much income", which has the same effect as higher marginal tax rates.
The marginal rate hikes starting January 1, 2011 are below:
- The 10% bracket rises to an expanded 15%
- The 25% bracket rises to 28%
- The 28% bracket rises to 31%
- The 33% bracket rises to 36%
- The 35% bracket rises to 39.6%
Higher taxes on marriage and family. The "marriage penalty" (compressed tax brackets for married couples) will return starting with the first dollar of your income. The child tax credit will be cut in half from $1000 to $500 per child. The standard deduction will no longer be doubled for married couples and the dependent care tax credit will be cut.
Higher tax rates on savers and investors. The capital gains tax will rise from 15% this year to 20% percent in 2011. The dividends tax will rise from 15% this year to 39.6% percent in 2011. These rates will rise another 3.8% in 2013.
The Dreaded AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) The AMT will hit over 28.5 million families, up from 4 million last year as a result of the failure of Congress to index the AMT and expiring exceptions. You will be calculating your tax twice and you will pay tax the higher of the normal income tax or the AMT.
The end of the year is almost upon us. Don 't wait until the last minute to start thinking about what the new tax laws will mean for us. 請勿等到最後一分鐘才思考稅的問題、請咨詢稅務專家。
