How We Calculate Your Take-Home Pay
Our calculator uses 2026 federal tax brackets, the standard deduction ($15,000 for single filers), FICA taxes (Social Security at 6.2% up to $176,100 and Medicare at 1.45%), and state income tax rates to estimate your after-tax income.
What Is Take-Home Pay?
Take-home pay is the amount you actually receive after all taxes are withheld from your paycheck. It includes deductions for federal income tax, state income tax (if applicable), Social Security, and Medicare. Your take-home pay is always less than your gross salary.
Factors That Affect Your Take-Home Pay
Filing status (single, married, head of household), number of dependents, pre-tax deductions (401k, health insurance), state of residence, and additional income all affect your actual take-home amount. Our calculator provides estimates for a single filer with no dependents taking the standard deduction.

Maximizing Your Take-Home Pay
The practical value of the Your Salary After Tax page is that it helps you move from a headline compensation number to a rough real-life budget scenario. Once the estimate is in the right range, you can pressure-test it against your own deductions, household situation, and benefit elections rather than assuming every worker with the same salary has the same take-home pay.
