Alabama low-income earners to benefit from modest tax break
“Gov. Kay Ivey has signed into law a tax break bill that raises the threshold for claiming the standard deduction on their state income tax. The act sponsored by state Sen. Del Marsh, a Republican, raises the income threshold from $20,000 to $23,000 for married couples filing jointly, heads of households, and single filers. For married individuals filing separately, it rises from $10,000 to $10,500.”
