What this estimate simplifies
- For taxpayers whose AGI exceeds $122,200 (married filing separately) or $244,400 (all other filers), Minnesota’s standard deduction is reduced by 3 percent of the excess of the taxpayer’s federal AGI over the applicable amount but not over $168,900 (married filing separately) or $337,800 (all other filers), plus 10 percent of the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income over the second threshold, or 80 percent of the standard deduction otherwise allowable, whichever is less.
