HB 2740 modifies Oklahoma's individual income tax rates for tax years beginning in 2026. It lowers tax brackets for both single filers and married couples filing jointly, introducing new rates such as 0.25% on the first $1,000 of taxable income for singles (0.25% on first $2,000 for married couples) and 4.75% on remaining income for all filers. The bill directly affects all Oklahoma individual taxpayers by reducing their income tax burden compared to prior rates. The changes take effect for tax years starting January 1, 2026, as specified in Section C of the amended statute.
