An estimate of withholding for tax year 2026, using the IRS percentage method. Your employer may withhold slightly differently, and pre-tax items are treated as reducing both income tax and FICA, which is true for HSA and Section 125 health premiums but not for a traditional 401(k).
What comes out of a Nevada paycheck
Federal income tax is withheld using the percentage method in IRS Publication 15-T for 2026, driven by the filing status and adjustments on your Form W-4.
Social Security takes 6.2% of wages up to the 2026 wage base of $184,500, and Medicare takes 1.45% of every dollar, plus another 0.9% on wages above $200,000. These are federal and identical in every state.
Nevada adds nothing. A Nevada paycheck and a paycheck in a state with a 5% income tax differ by exactly that 5%, on the same salary.
