Florida Paycheck Calculator 2026
Florida has no state income tax on wages, so take-home pay is gross pay less federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare. Federal withholding follows the IRS Publication 15-T percentage method — the one payroll systems use. Everything is computed in your browser; nothing you type is sent anywhere.

Florida’s official withholding guidance ↗Florida paycheck questions
How much is taken out of a paycheck in Florida?
Federal income tax comes out under the IRS Publication 15-T percentage method, along with Social Security at 6.2% and Medicare at 1.45%. Florida has no state income tax on wages, so take-home pay is gross pay less federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare. Enter your gross pay above for an estimate of the total.
Does Florida have a state income tax?
No. Florida does not tax wage income, which is why the state line on the estimate above is zero. No state-mandated employee payroll deductions apply either.
Why does this differ from my actual pay stub?
Two reasons. Pre-tax items — retirement contributions, health premiums, HSA deductions — reduce taxable pay and are not modelled here. And this uses an annualized approximation of the state's schedule rather than the exact withholding tables your employer's payroll system uses, which is disclosed on every result.
