How Federal Income Tax Brackets Work. Say a married couple, filing jointly, in 2016, had a taxable income of $175,000. Each dollar over $151,900âor $23,100âwould fall into the 28% federal income tax bracket. However, the couples' total federal tax would have been $35,986âjust about 20%, of their adjusted gross income.
Types of Federal Tax Brackets. 1  Single - The Single brackets, applicable to all single non-joint filers, have the narrowest bracket width and generally result in the highest individual income tax. 2  Married Filing Jointly - The Married Filing Jointly tax brackets are applicable to all legally married couples filing their income tax on a joint return.
