What is the standard deduction for this year? Does it change each year? If so, why?
ANSWER
The BIDaWIZ Team's Answer:
Yes: the standard deduction amounts increase, almost every year,
because of inflation. The 2010 standard deduction amounts are:
$5,700 - single taxpyaers;
$11,400 - married filing jointly; &
$8,400 - head of household.
