CBO-Monthly Budget Review: February 2025
March 10, 2025--The federal budget deficit totaled $1.1 trillion in the first five months of fiscal year 2025, the Congressional Budget Office estimates. That amount is $319 billion more than the deficit recorded during the same period last fiscal year. Revenues were $37 billion (or 2 percent) higher, and outlays were $356 billion (or 13 percent) higher.
The change in the deficit was influenced by the timing of outlays and revenues, which decreased the deficit during the first five months of fiscal year 2024 but increased it during the same period this fiscal year. Outlays in October 2023 were reduced by shifts in the timing of payments that were due on October 1, 2023, a Sunday. (The payments were made that September.) Outlays in the first five months of 2025 rose, on net, because payments due on March 1, 2025, a Saturday, were made in February. If not for those shifts, the deficit so far this fiscal year would have been $1,064 billion, or $163 billion more than the shortfall at this point last year. Part of the deficit increase in 2025 also arises from the postponement of some tax deadlines from 2023 to 2024 (described below), which boosted receipts in 2024.
