For 2026, employers must report the eligible overtime amount on workers’ W-2s (box 12 code TT); only the overtime premium—the extra 0.5x pay above the regular rate—qualifies for the deduction, capped at $12,500 for singles or $25,000 for married couples and phased out at $150k/$300k. Unlike 2025, where reporting was waived, this year requires employer reporting; workers should still verify the amount on their pay stubs and request a corrected W-2 if it’s inaccurate. About 29 million taxpayers claimed the deduction in 2025 with an average of over $3,100.
Trump’s targeted tax breaks have sparked a bipartisan rush to copycat deductions—from overtime and tipped-income relief to boat-loan interest and border-patrol exemptions—raising questions about permanence and cost as 2028 expirations loom. Proposals seek to extend or broaden who qualifies, including expanded medical/home‑buying deductions and new credits, with millions already benefiting (more than 35 million seniors, 29 million overtime, 7 million tipped-income) and roughly $600 billion needed to keep all four provisions. Conservatives warn they are earmarks; progressives worry about revenue and priorities; the political fight is likely to continue into the midterms and beyond.
