BBB-No Tax on Overtime
Posted on 7/3/25 at 6:10 pm
Posted on 7/3/25 at 6:10 pm
Anyone know how the No Tax on Overtime will work for offshore workers who work 40 hours regular and 44 hours overtime per week?
I am hearing that if the 44 hours of overtime is your regular schedule, then it will be taxed as normal, and any "unscheduled" overtime past the 44 hours will be eligible for no federal taxes...

It's also up to the first $12,500

I hope it’s all overtime (likely not).
About to be in a project doing 60/week scheduled. I’d LOVE to only be taxed on my 40

Unless they expanded it greatly, it won’t.
You will make way too much money to get the tax break.

Only overtime covered from the fair labor standards act (FLSA) is exempt. For example, if you get time-and-a-half pay after the first 8 hours worked each day, rather than after the first 40 hours worked each week, then you got screwed.

If you make more than $160k/yr you are out and there's no phase out. There's no federal tax on the premium portion of the OT, ie. the 0.5 of the 1.5 and you still have to pay FICA and state taxes on it.
So, unfortunately AOC was right when she said it was bread crumbs.

So if hourly and you make 160k and up, you lose out on all tax benefits? But if you make 159,999 or less, one gets those benefits?

I think the senate version replaced the cap on income with a cap of the first 12.5k of OT filing single and 25k filing jointly.

Interesting. So no matter how much overtime, you still get the tax benefits even if the gross income is 160k or more, just capped at 25k if filing jointly?

Why downvotes for asking this?

A little is better than nothing as it was a week ago, right?

I believe there is a phase out and it's if you're MAGI is $150k per year. You can contribute $23.5k to your 401k which reduces your MAGI. Those numbers are also for single filers. If you're married filing jointly then the phase out jumps up to $300k, with $47k total contribution limits to 401k's to help bring down your MAGI, and the OT deduction jumps from $12.5k to $25k.

Sounds like exempt employees are out.

I make over 160k offshore, but file jointly with my wife. Together, we make under 300k, but she doesn’t get OT, etc. I’m wondering how that will play out for me and if I’ll qualify for it. And if I do, will I get the 12.5 or the 25 k deduction.

I think 25k because yall file jointly.

This is my exact situation. Im interested in a definite answer as how we will be affected
Posted on 7/4/25 at 10:21 am to TechBullDawg
When would this take effect? I have to understand how it affects my hourly employees
Posted on 7/4/25 at 10:47 am to jmarto1
I believe it is retroactive to january 1 of this year. And to the poster above, yes the way I read it is that you would get the $25k deduction because you are filing jointly but I'm no expert
