Tax Tip Tuesday – January 20, 2026 – Overtime Pay Tax Benefits

January 20, 2026 By Laser1040

Becky explains how overtime premiums up to $12,500 are not taxed if your income is under $100,000, with the deduction phasing out at $150,000 income (doubled for married filers).

She addresses the common misconception that overtime isn’t worth it when your take-home pay seems lower in a single pay period, clarifying that this averages out over the year and typically results in a larger tax refund due to higher withholding.
