“Qualified tips” are voluntary cash or charged tips received from customers including shared tips. Maximum annual deduction is $25,000. If you’re self-employed, the deduction can’t exceed your net income, before this deduction, from the trade or business where tips were earned.
TIPS pay a fixed rate of interest every six months until they mature. Because we pay interest on the adjusted principal, the amount of interest payment also varies. You can hold a TIPS until it matures or sell it before it matures. The rate is fixed at auction and is never less than 0.125%.

Some people may still owe federal income tax on their tips, payroll taxes still apply to tips, and your state might also tax tips. The tip deduction is temporary – it only applies for the 2025 to 2028 tax years.
