Personal Exemptions: The Basics. A personal exemption is a specific amount of money that you automatically get to deduct for yourself every year. For tax year 2016 and 2017, the personal exemption is $4,050. Whether you can claim the entire exemption or only part of it depends on your adjusted gross income.
