Your Tax Questiion - 015

Dear John, Thanks for this great blog -It is like a car wreck that I don’t want to stare at but I can’t help myself. Here’s my question: What are the standard deduction rates for 2009 taxes? Thanks, Billie.

Hi Billie,

Thanks for the kind words - It warms my heart to know that I can suffer tragedy for your viewing pleasure.

To answer your question, the Standard Deductions for 2009 are as follows.

• $11,400 Married Filing Jointly
• $5,700 Married Filing Separately
  
• $8,350 Head-of-Household
• $5,700 for Single filers.
  

Best wishes,
John
