If you are older than 50 years of age, pay close attention!

If you are jumping right to 2023 tax and financial planning without wrapping up 2022, take a minute to check out our guide to 2022 End of Year Financial Planning.

2. Increased standard deduction. It will automatically exempt $27,700 MFJ and $13,850 Individual of income.

  • HSA Limits:
    • Single $3,850
