Internal Revenue Service Releases 2016 Tax Numbers

On October 21, 2015, the Internal Revenue Service released the annual inflation adjustments for more than fifty tax provisions and the tax rate schedules for individuals, married individuals filing jointly, and heads of households. For 2016, Taxpayers will see a slight increase in some tax benefits, while other benefits will remain the same. Along with the tax benefits, several penalties have also been adjusted.

We updated our Key Tax Numbers which can be located on our website at the following link: Key Tax Numbers. Additionally, the IRS provided a summary of the provisions that it believes would be of the greatest interest to most tax payers. The summary and a link to the Revenue Procedure can be found at https://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/In-2016-Some-Tax-Benefits-Increase-Slightly-Due-to-Inflation-Adjustments,-Others-Are-Unchanged. Alternatively, the Revenue Procedure will appear in the Internal Revenue Bulletin 2015-44 dated November 2.
