How the Florida paycheck calculator works
This calculator estimates your take-home pay by subtracting federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%) from your gross annual salary. High earners pay an additional 0.9% Medicare surtax above the IRS threshold.
Federal income tax
Federal tax uses progressive brackets ranging from 10% to 37%. Each dollar is taxed only at the rate of the bracket it falls into (this is called your marginal rate, not your effective rate). The calculator applies the 2026 IRS brackets (IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32) and the $16,100 standard deduction for single filers.
Florida state tax
Florida does not levy a state personal income tax.
FICA (Social Security + Medicare)
FICA taxes are flat: 6.2% Social Security on wages up to the 2026 cap of $184,500, plus 1.45% Medicare on all wages. Single filers earning over $200,000 pay an additional 0.9% Medicare surtax on income above that threshold. FICA is charged on a wider base than income tax: a traditional 401(k) contribution does not reduce it. Only Section 125 cafeteria plan benefits, such as health, dental and vision premiums and a health FSA through your employer, lower your FICA wages.
