Common questions
How is take-home pay calculated?
Your gross salary minus federal income tax (IRS brackets and the standard deduction), Social Security (6.2% up to the wage base), Medicare (1.45%), and your state income-tax rate. The result is divided by your chosen pay frequency.
Which states have no income tax?
Nine states charge no tax on wage income: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. Your only payroll deductions there are federal income tax and FICA.
Is this calculator accurate?
It is a close estimate using standard federal and FICA figures and a simplified state rate. It does not include pre-tax deductions like 401(k) or HSA, local or city taxes, or credits, so verify with your employer or a payroll professional.
Does it handle different pay frequencies?
Yes. Choose weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, monthly, or annual and the take-home figure updates instantly to show pay per period alongside your annual total.
