Why Texas Workers Keep More of Their Paycheck
The state of Texas is prohibited by its state constitution from assessing a personal income tax. As a result, 100% of state—level income tax deductions remain in your pocket. The only payroll withholdings taken from a Texas worker's paycheck are:
- Federal Income Tax: Progressive rates ranging from 10% to 37% based on your IRS Form W—4 elections.
- Social Security Tax: 6.2% on wages up to the federal wage limit ($168,600 in 2024/2025/2026).
- Medicare Tax: 1.45% on all earnings, plus an aAdditional 0.9% on income exceeding $200,000 ($250,000 married).
