New Tax Bill Will Temporarily Boost Standard Deduction of Eligible Working Families for the Next Years

The new tax bill called Tax Cuts for Working Families Act aims to temporarily expand the standard deduction of eligible working families of up to $4,000 for the next years.

According to Yahoo Finance, the new tax bill will eventually result in billions of tax cuts for eligible working families, who will receive tax relief to help them meet their basic needs amidst the increasing inflation rate in different parts of the country.

However, despite the expansion of the standard deduction on the tax of eligible working families, low-income taxpayers who needed relief the most will reportedly not see any tax cut.

With the new tax bill that will give standard deduction to working families, other low-income families also hoped for tax relief allocated for them as the cost of living gets higher and it gets harder to keep up every day.
