The IRS has clarified that no tax on overtime is a deduction, not a blanket exemption from federal taxes on overtime wages.
Generally, only the premium portion of overtime required under the Fair Labor Standards Act qualifies such as the extra half in time-and-a-half pay.
The deduction is capped at $12,500 for individuals and $25,000 for married couples filing jointly, with benefits phasing out at higher incomes.
The Internal Revenue Service has issued new guidance clarifying how the federal no tax on overtime provision works, spelling out which workers and wages qualify for the new tax break and addressing a potentially confusing point: The law does not make all overtime earnings tax-free.
The IRS has updated its frequently asked questions on the deduction for qualified overtime compensation, replacing guidance released in January. The agency said the revisions clarify the deductions limits and timing, Fair Labor Standards Act coverage and employer reporting requirements.
Under the provision, taxpayers can deduct up to $12,500 in qualified overtime compensation each year, or up to $25,000 for married couples filing jointly. The deduction begins to phase out when modified adjusted gross income exceeds $150,000 for an individual or $300,000 for a joint return.
What no tax on overtime actually means
Despite the shorthand name, workers cannot simply subtract all of their overtime wages from their taxable income.
Qualified overtime generally means the amount paid above a workers regular rate that is required by Section 7 of the Fair Labor Standards Act. For a worker receiving the standard time-and-a-half overtime rate, that generally means the additional one-half portion qualifies for the deduction not the workers entire overtime paycheck.
For example, suppose a worker normally earns $20 an hour and receives $30 an hour for FLSA-required overtime. Generally, the $10 overtime premium is the portion that could count as qualified overtime compensation for the deduction.
There is another important restriction: Overtime that is not required by the FLSA does not qualify simply because an employer calls it overtime. The IRS says an employee who isn't eligible for overtime under the FLSA doesn't receive qualified overtime compensation even if another arrangement, such as a collective bargaining agreement, provides overtime pay.
