Here’s How You Qualify For The Benefit

President Donald Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” is making waves with a new tax break aimed at older Americans. This promises to be the first significant tax break for retirees since 2017, offering a temporary “senior bonus” deduction that could see many seniors reducing their taxable income by up to $6,000 annually from 2025-2028.

The Senate version of the bill allows every filer aged 65 or older to subtract $6,000 ($12,000 for couples) from their income, regardless of whether they itemize. In contrast, the House’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act sets the deduction at $4,000 per person, as reported by The Washington Post.

Both the Senate and House plans phase out the deduction for modified adjusted gross incomes up to $75,000 for singles and $150,000 for joint filers. The deduction disappears entirely for incomes above $175,000 for singles and $250,000 for joint filers.

Middle-income retirees stand to benefit the most from this new tax break. Analysts at Kiplinger estimate that a married couple earning $100,000 could save around $1,600 in federal taxes under the Senate plan. However, lower-income seniors who already pay little or no tax on their Social Security benefits may see smaller or no savings, while high-income retirees will be phased out of the deduction.

The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates that the senior bonus, along with other tax extensions in the bill, could cost around $30 billion annually. This could potentially extend the Social Security trust fund’s exhaustion date to late 2032 from early 2033 by reducing the taxes seniors pay on their benefits. The Tax Foundation projects that the four-year deduction alone could cost $90 billion if the Senate’s figure is adopted, and up to $250 billion if made permanent.

Next steps involve House and Senate negotiators reconciling the $6,000 and $4,000 deduction figures before a final vote, expected before the July 4 recess. The Trump administration argues that this deduction will provide significant tax relief to seniors without altering benefit formulas, presenting historic tax relief to older Americans.

In conclusion, the “Big, Beautiful Bill” is set to bring about significant changes in tax policies for older Americans, offering a much-needed break for retirees. Stay tuned for updates on this evolving legislation.
