Texas Paycheck Calculator

Texas paycheck calculator estimates take-home pay after tax for Texas State residents.

There is no state and local tax for Texas residents, therefore this calculator calculates Federal income tax, social security tax, and Medicare tax.

The social security tax rate is 6.2% and the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross income. The maximum taxable earnings for social security tax is $142,800 for the year 2021. Single filers pay an additional 0.9% in Medicare taxes if income is over $200,000 ($250,000 for married filing jointly).

This calculator uses the standard deduction of $12,550 (single) and $25,100 (married filing jointly) for the year 2021. After gross income less standard deduction, that is taxable income subject to Federal income tax.
