Many workers in Las Vegas will benefit from the popular policy known as “no tax on tips” — and you could be one of them.

The Treasury Department released a preliminary list this week of 68 jobs that qualify for the policy that eliminates federal taxes on tipped income, signed into law through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in July. It specifically provides workers with a temporary tax deduction of up to $25,000 a year through 2028.

An official list of occupations will be published in the Federal Register as part of other proposed regulations from Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service. The final list is expected to be substantially the same as the preliminary list, and public comments will be requested.
