Salary Calculator: US Paycheck

See your real take-home pay in seconds. This paycheck calculator turns a salary or an hourly rate into the number that actually lands in your account — after federal withholding, Social Security, Medicare and your state's income tax. Choose your pay period and state, enter your pay, and read the answer. No sign-up, no signal, nothing uploaded.

WHAT YOU CAN WORK OUT
• Salary, hourly, overtime at time and a half, tips and bonus pay
• Weekly, biweekly, semimonthly or monthly pay periods, every deduction itemized
• Federal income tax from your Form W-4, Social Security, Medicare, and state income tax
• Pre-tax deductions on the right bases — 401(k) and 403(b) lower income tax but not FICA, while HSA and section 125 premiums lower both
• Compare two saved pay profiles, or project one paycheck across a full year

PRIVATE AND OFFLINE
Everything you type stays on your device: no account, no cloud, no upload, no signal required. No ads anywhere in this app.

ESTIMATES, NOT ADVICE
Estimates for planning only — not tax, legal, or financial advice. Actual withholding is set by your employer and the tax authorities, and your final tax depends on your whole return.
