5 Tax Changes in 2026 Most People Don't Know About Yet

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act made some major changes to the tax code this year. I wanted to break down the ones that affect regular working people the most.

Standard deduction went up. Tips and overtime are now deductible for the first time ever. SALT cap went from $10K to $40K. Child Tax Credit is now $2,200 per child. And there's a new $6,000 deduction if you're 65 or older.

All of this is straight from IRS.gov if you want to verify.

What tax changes are you most excited about? What questions do you have?
