40
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 5: The no tax on overtime provision in the Big Beautiful

41
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,200

42
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 5: the chief tax information officer at Jackson Hewitt, breaks it down.

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 6: If you receive overtime, generally you know it, and you

44
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 6: also probably know how much overtime you received. The deduction

45
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 6: is twelve five hundred dollars per person, twenty five thousand

46
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 6: if you're both receiving it and you're married, of the

47
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 6: qualified overtime, which is the premium.

48
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 5: Now, Steber does add it just might be a little

49
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 5: more complicated this year because this is the first year

50
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 5: that you're actually allowed to claim the deduction.

51
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 6: So say you get twenty dollars an hour and you're

52
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 6: working and you get overtime, but that's at thirty dollars

53
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 6: an hour. It's not the thirty that you calculate for

54
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 6: the tax deduction. It's the premium, the ten dollars per hour.
