Federal taxes on every Florida paycheck
- Federal income tax: 10% to 37% on income above the $16,100 standard deduction (single) or $32,200 (married filing jointly). See 2026 tax brackets.
- Social Security: 6.2% of wages up to $184,500.
- Medicare, 1.45% of all wages, plus 0.9% above $200,000.
How to take home more
- Contribute to a 401(k) or 403(b), it lowers federal and Florida income tax now.
- Use HSA or FSA accounts for health costs; they usually avoid federal income tax and FICA.
- Check your W-4: a big refund means too much is withheld. See how to fill out a W-4.
