The IRS has released new guidance for individuals who received tips or overtime in tax year 2025.

Here’s what you need to know:

• Qualified tips and eligible overtime pay may now be deductible — a major change under new rules.
• The tip deduction is capped at $25,000 per year (before phase-outs for higher earners).
• The overtime deduction applies only to qualified overtime compensation under federal law.
• The IRS is in the process of updating income tax forms and instructions for taxpayers to use this filing season that will assist them in claiming these deductions.

If you received tips or worked overtime in 2025, this update could reduce your taxable income so it’s worth reviewing.
