IRS Explains How You Can Claim Your 2025 Tips And Overtime Deductions

New IRS rules allow eligible workers to deduct up to $25,000 in tips and $15,000 in overtime pay on 2025 federal tax returns under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

  • On Friday, the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Department of the Treasury released detailed guidance on deductions tied to tips and overtime for tax year 2025, reported on new Schedule 1-A.
  • The One Big Beautiful Bill Act created the temporary deductions with income limits for single filers up to $150,000 and joint filers up to $300,000, expiring in four years.
  • To substantiate claims, taxpayers may use Forms W-2, 1099 or Form 4137 and contemporaneous logs; tipped workers may claim up to $25,000 and overtime deductions cover only the FLSA 'half' premium with divide-by-three examples.
  • An estimated 6 million Americans could benefit, with middle-income households gaining about $800 to $1,200, according to IRS estimates.
  • Employers and payors are given temporary relief from separate reporting and penalties for 2025, while the Treasury Department plans proposed regulations with public comment and offers SSTB transition relief.
