Most Taxpayers To Enjoy Roses But Some May Feel The Thorns
Washington AP reports the 1977 Tax Reduction and Simplification Act will cut taxes for 46 million people with a new standard deduction of 2200 for singles and heads of household and 3200 for married couples. It expands the use of the standard deduction to 77 percent of taxpayers, reduces the marriage penalty, and introduces a two step tax lookup. The bill retroactively alters sick pay and overseas earning rules to Jan 1 1977, offers elderly credits, and provides various credits and reliefs including a $400 earned income credit for poor workers and deductions for home daycare. It also imposes withholding on gambling winnings over thresholds and includes benefits for oil producers and farming firms.
