2024-2025 Tax Brackets and Federal Income Tax Rates
In the U.S., there are seven federal income tax rates: 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35%, and 37%. These rates will remain the same for both 2024 and 2025 because of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).
Contrary to popular belief, your income isn’t generally taxed at a flat rate. Instead, parts of your earnings can be taxed at different rates, depending on how much you make as well as your filing status.
For example, a single filer who made $50,000 of taxable income in 2024 will pay a combination of 10%, 12% and 22% on their earnings. Their marginal tax rate — or the highest tax rate they are exposed to — is 22%, but this doesn’t mean they pay 22% on everything.
