Each year the IRS adjusts forty plus tax rules for inflation and other factors. The IRS does this to prevent any bracket creep. This keeps you from moving into a higher tax brackets just because your taxable income changes due to deductions vanishing. The IRS uses the Consumer Price Index to estimate prior year inflation and adjust income thresholds, deduction amounts, and credit values. Federal Income Tax Rate 2016 listed here

In 2016, taxable income limits for all tax brackets and all filing types will be adjusted for inflation.
