Standard Deduction and Child Credits?

Trying to sort out my personal family impact. What is the actual change to standard deduction (joint) and child credits (x2)?

Specific Amounts for 2025: For the tax year 2025 (taxes filed in 2026), the standard deduction amounts are:
Single filers: $15,750
Married Filing Jointly: $31,500
Heads of household: $23,625
Married Filing Separately: $15,750
For Married Filing Jointly it increased by 1,500 and it looks like it will be inflation adjusted yearly. Need to wait on the IRS for details.
The child tax credit will be $2,200 per child. An increase of $200.

Not bad. Stood to owe many thousands more if current rates expired. Saving $1900 instead. A good news swing of like $8k

I'm assuming that 100% bonus depreciation made it through, right?
And what ended up being done on taxes on social security?
