Sponsored By: Representative Miller, Max L. [R-OH-7]
Introduced
Summary
Permanently increase the standard deduction and change how the cost-of-living adjustment applies to those amounts. The bill would raise two deduction levels and reset the reference years used to compute annual inflation updates.
Show full summary
- Households that claim the standard deduction would see two key amounts rise to $18,000 and $12,000, which reduces taxable income for filers who take the standard deduction.
- Annual inflation updates for those and related dollar amounts would use new base years (2017, 1987, and 1997 depending on the line) and any increase would be rounded down to the next lowest $50.

Bigger standard deduction for taxpayers
If enacted, this would raise key standard deduction amounts to $18,000 and $12,000, up from $4,400 and $3,000. If you claim the standard deduction, you could lower your taxable income by more. This would start for tax years that begin after the bill becomes law. Each year, these amounts would rise with a cost-of-living adjustment that uses 2017 as the base year. Yearly increases would be rounded down to the next $50, and some related amounts would also get inflation updates using 1987 or 1997 base years.
