I think they are thinking of removing the optional standard deductions with the new tax rate but since it is still an HB, no info yet. I am wondering though regarding tax jumps. Currently, we have the "in excess of" stipulation in the tax rates to protect from tax jumps. It looks like they are removing it to make it simpler. The only consequence is if you are in the border, if you get an increase that will bump your annual salary from 500k to 510k, you will end up losing 30k approx without the "in excess of" clause. It would suck for a few folks but for the rest, this is fine. Just wondering as well why the range of 500k to 10m, why not at least include a 500k to 2m with 12% tax, then tax jumps is not so big deal. But. I am not complaining.
There was a study last year made by upd econ prof about this, when implemented and remove the standard deductions, the government will earn more money without counting the % of tax evaders that will be enticed to pay when offered a lower tax rate

dugo at pawis binigay ko sa gobyerno sa 32% na tax ko. Milyonaryo na sana ako ngayon kung wala lang tax.
