Texas Paycheck Calculator2026
Estimate your Texas take-home pay after federal, state, and FICA taxes.
Texas takes no cut of your paycheck for state income tax, because there simply isn't one. What comes out of a Texas paycheck is federal income tax and FICA, nothing at the state level, including on overtime and bonuses.
Enter your pay below to see your Texas take-home pay for 2026. There's no state income tax to withhold, so what leaves your check is federal income tax and FICA. The calculator works the same whether you're paid hourly or on salary.
How Texas paycheck tax works
Texas levies no state personal income tax on wages. No state tax is withheld from any paycheck, including overtime and bonuses. Only federal income tax and FICA are withheld.
To estimate your paycheck, the calculator annualizes your pay and applies federal income tax and FICA. Texas adds no state income tax of its own. Read it as a close estimate: your employer's payroll can land a little differently, since it may use exact per-period tables.
