Per paycheck breakdown

Federal Income Tax is withheld using the IRS tax bracket system, applied to taxable wages (gross minus pre-tax deductions). Actual annual tax depends on your total income and W-4 elections.

Social Security: 6.2% on wages up to $168,600 (2026 wage base). Medicare: 1.45% on all wages, plus 0.9% additional Medicare on wages above $200,000.

Pre-tax deductions (401k, health insurance, HSA) reduce your taxable income for federal and most state taxes, saving you money every paycheck.

⚠️ This is an estimate based on 2026 tax rates and the standard deduction. Actual withholding depends on your W-4 elections, tax credits, and other income. Use IRS Tax Withholding Estimator for exact figures.
