The IRS has unveiled higher capital gains tax brackets for 2025.
In its announcement Tuesday, the agency boosted the taxable income limits for the long-term capital gains brackets, which apply to assets owned for more than one year.
The IRS also increased figures for dozens of other provisions, including federal income tax brackets, the estate and gift tax exemption and eligibility for the child tax credit, among others.
How advisors are preparingThe capital gains rate you pay is based on which bracket you fall into based on taxable income.
Starting in 2025, single filers will qualify for the 0% long-term capital gains rate with taxable income of $48,350 or less and married couples filing jointly are eligible with $96,700 or less.
