This US take-home pay calculator estimates your net pay after federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and state taxes. It uses official 2026 IRS tax brackets, the $184,500 Social Security wage base, and current Medicare rates.
With a $75,000 salary (single, 6% 401(k), 5% state tax): $4,500 goes to 401(k) pre-tax. Taxable income after the $16,100 standard deduction is $54,400. Federal tax is approximately $6,800. Social Security is $4,650, Medicare is $1,088, and state tax is $3,750. Annual take-home is roughly $54,200.
Your take-home pay is what remains after all taxes and 401(k) contributions. The effective tax rate shows what percentage of your gross income goes to taxes (excluding 401(k)). A lower effective rate means you keep more of each dollar earned.
Yes, enter your state's flat income tax rate. If your state has progressive brackets (like California or New York), use your expected effective state rate. Some states like Texas, Florida, and Washington have no state income tax.
This calculator assumes traditional (pre-tax) 401(k) contributions, which reduce your federal taxable income but not your FICA taxes. For Roth 401(k) contributions, set this to 0% and manually subtract from your take-home pay.
If your wages exceed $200,000 (single) or $250,000 (married filing jointly), you pay an additional 0.9% Medicare tax on the excess. This is included in the calculation.
