How Bracket Thresholds Shift

The IRS adjusts bracket thresholds each year using chained CPI. Over six years (2020–2026), cumulative inflation adjustments pushed the single-filer 22% bracket ceiling up roughly 25%. This tool lets you see exactly how each bracket moved between any two years and how the change affects the same income level.
