AI Summary

  • Removes marriage penalties from individual income tax credits over a five-year period (2026-2030), so that by 2030 the income phaseout thresholds for single, head of household, and married filing separately filers will equal exactly half the threshold for joint filers

  • Increases the income phaseout threshold for the nonrefundable taxpayer tax credit from $15,095 to $18,696 for single/married filing separately filers, and from $30,190 to $37,392 for joint filers

  • Adjusts income phaseout thresholds for the nonrefundable retirement tax credit (available to those born before 1953) with graduated changes through 2030, ultimately setting single/head of household/married filing separately at $16,000 and joint filers at $32,000

  • Modifies income phaseout thresholds for the $1,000 nonrefundable child tax credit (for children under 6), reducing the single/head of household threshold from $43,000 to $27,000 by 2030 to match the married filing separately threshold

  • Takes effect May 6, 2026, with retrospective operation for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2026
