Bonus Tax Relief for America’s Seniors Act
This bill increases the additional standard deduction for seniors aged 65 or older from $600 to $5,000 for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025. It also requires annual inflation adjustments to the $5,000 amount starting in 2026, using the cost-of-living adjustment formula. The change directly affects seniors filing taxes who qualify for the standard deduction, lowering their taxable income. The provision applies to all eligible seniors regardless of income level or filing status.
