The IRS Just Published the Tips List—Are You On It?

November 3, 2025

68 Occupations Can Deduct
$25,000 in Tips—Are You One?

To get my complete article
with all the details…

The IRS just published the official list.

68 occupations. 8 industries. If you’re on it, you qualify for the $25,000 tips deduction. If not, you’re out.

Some occupations make no sense.

Others create legal conflicts. Jobs explicitly excluded by law somehow appear on the list anyway.

The list is preliminary. You have a narrow window to submit public comments and get your occupation added before it’s finalized.

Check the list now—before you assume you do or don’t qualify.

Does the IRS List You as Qualifying for the Tips Deduction?
