TurboTax shows 22% bracket for MFJ starting at $78,750.  IRS documents show it starting at $78,950 - $200 difference.  What's up?

    I am not certain whether or not we are looking at the same thing or talking around each other. 

     

    My screenshot shows taxable income of $78,751 and a tax bracket of 12%, not 22%.

    Where, exactly, are you seeing this error? The screenshot below is from a test return and appears correct.

    Thank for the reply.  As shown, it's ok.  BUT - my question is about the threshold value for the 22% bracket.  Your example shows it starts at $78,751.  Per what I see in IRS docs, it starts at $78,951.
