Karl Yee was about to pay a nearly $112,000 Massachusetts tax bill for his late mother’s estate when he got a reprieve from the governor. A retroactive change to the state’s estate-tax law had dropped the estate’s bill to $12,000. “Hallelujah!” he said, after hearing the news.

Your tax bill may be slightly lower next year due to inflation adjustments. Photo: iStockHere’s an upside to persistent inflation: More of your income will be taxed at lower rates next year. The Internal Revenue Service announced its annual inflation adjustments to federal income-tax brackets for 2024 Thursday, an increase that slightly outpaces the current inflation rate. This means some Americans will pay less in taxes, said Jim Young, an accounting professor at Northern Illinois University.

When Dr. James Rocconi’s third wife left him, he rushed to update his will and other estate-planning documents to ensure she would get nothing when he died. But since the handwritten change he faxed to his insurance company wasn’t accepted, his three children from his first marriage ended up in a six-year legal fight with her over the benefits after he died in 2017.
