There is so much to talk about with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 it’s hard to know where to start. What we do know is that 2018 is going to be a year of changes.
Today we are going to talk about itemized deduction:
On a good note in an act to try and simplify taxes for the “regular” person, the standard deduction has now been raised. So for a married couple filing jointly, the standard deduction is now $24,000. For a single person the standard deduction is now $12,000. What does this mean? Well the government says that you, the taxpayer, are allowed to choose whether you want to take the standard deduction or the itemized deductions. Further, they say that you can take whichever deduction is worth more to you. Due to the increased amounts for the standard deduction and restrictions as described above on the itemized deductions, there will be more people that will opt for the standard deduction in 2018.
