Paycheck Calculator — Take-Home Pay After Taxes
Estimate your net take-home pay after federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare (FICA). Uses 2025 IRS tax brackets.
* Estimate only. Does not include state/local taxes, 401(k), health insurance, or other deductions. Based on 2025 IRS Publication 15-T brackets.
What is a Paycheck Calculator?
A paycheck calculator estimates your net take-home pay after mandatory federal deductions are subtracted from your gross wages. In the United States, every paycheck is subject to federal income tax withholding (based on IRS tax brackets and your W-4 allowances), plus FICA taxes — Social Security at 6.2% and Medicare at 1.45%. Understanding these deductions helps you budget accurately, plan retirement contributions, and avoid surprises at tax time.
This calculator applies the 2025 IRS federal income tax brackets for single and married filing jointly statuses, using the annualized income method recommended in IRS Publication 15-T. Your gross pay per paycheck is annualized, the standard deduction and allowance adjustments are applied, and the resulting tax is divided back down to a per-paycheck amount. Social Security and Medicare are straightforward flat percentages applied to every paycheck.
