How Florida paychecks work (2026)
In Florida, your take-home pay is your salary minus federal income tax, FICA (Social Security 6.2% + Medicare 1.45%) — and that's it, because Florida has no state income tax. This calculator uses the official 2026 rates for a single filer.
Florida state income tax
Florida has no state income tax. You only pay federal income tax and FICA, so more of your salary reaches your bank account.
Example: $80,000 in Florida
Federal tax is about $8,770 and FICA $6,120 — leaving a take-home of roughly $65,110 a year. No state tax is deducted.
What this calculator does not include
- Local/city taxes (none), 401(k) and pre-tax deductions, and filing statuses other than single.
- It shows tax liability, which can differ from paycheck withholding (employers often over-withhold).
