Frequently asked questions
What taxes are deducted from my paycheck?
Most US paychecks have federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% up to the annual wage base), Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% on high earners), and — in most states — state income tax withheld.
How accurate is this calculator?
This tool gives a close estimate using 2025 example tax brackets and standard deductions. It does not account for pre-tax 401(k)/HSA contributions, itemized deductions, or tax credits. All rates are pending verification against official IRS and state sources.
Does it work for all 50 states?
Yes. Pick your state from the dropdown to apply its 2025 income tax rules — progressive brackets, a flat rate, or no state income tax. State rates are compiled from the Tax Foundation and state revenue departments and treated as estimates.
