I know some companies still have to update their withholding tables, but for those who still work to get a paycheck, how much did yours increase due to the tax reform?

Average pay increase / tax decrease is $2381.

None really.

But that is what happens when compensation is in commissions and bonuses (flat payroll tax at 25%)

Did they really say it's going to be "crumbs"?

For our bi-weekly folks make sure you multiply 1 check by 26 then divide by 12 for your montly raise.


Edit. I need coffee

Yes, yes they did. I think she was talking specifically about the bonuses, but still. $40 saving on healthcare is monumental, but $1000 bonus is crumbs. Makes no sense.

Hope that this is the case. I didn’t have any movement. I need to pull up my pay stub.

$2392. Combine that with wells Fargo sending me a letter and informing me of dropping my PMI this is turning out to be a good year

Mine was an extra $15. That's $30 a month or $360 a year. Will find out my wife's tomorrow.

Because I'm a sole proprietor, I got a pretty nice boost. My rough calculations are that I'll keep an extra $7000 with an average year.

I just checked my wife's direct deposit, and there's an extra $111 over the last paycheck. She's a teacher on a 10-month pay structure, so she's getting an extra $1110 for the year.

So, mtntiger's household gets to keep over $8000.

Apparently, I'm one of those rich guys goofy Joe Kennedy was talking about.

Thanks Trump.

Our household income will increase almost 6k for the year.
Our oldest (24) is raking in the money due to the economy. As a welder on the pipeline, he's winning bigly!!

$60 on my wife's latest paycheck, so $720? She's a teacher, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Not sure I can figure out mine yet.
