FAQ
About this calculator
What's FICA?
FICA = Social Security (6.2% up to $168,600 in 2024) + Medicare (1.45%, with no cap). Wages above status-based thresholds owe an extra 0.9% Additional Medicare.
Does this include state tax?
No — state and local rates vary widely. Add your state rate separately or check your state's department of revenue.
What about 401(k) and benefits?
For pre-tax deductions like 401(k) or HSA, use the Net Salary Calculator instead.
