- Taxpayers with incomes or an adjustable gross income (AGI) over $200,000 who file individually, or $250,000 for married couples filing jointly, could be subject to a 3.8% tax on income from interest, dividends, annuities, royalties and rents which are not derived in the ordinary course of trade or business. Exceptions apply. Read more about the tax.
