How Florida paycheck taxes work
Florida is one of the states with no personal income tax. Florida cities and counties also do not charge a local income tax. Most workers still see federal income tax and FICA taxes on their pay stub. FICA means Social Security and Medicare. Employers pay Florida's unemployment tax (called reemployment tax) themselves, so it is not taken from your paycheck.
Social Security
You pay 6.2% of your wages up to the 2026 limit of $184,500. Pay above that amount is not taxed for Social Security.
Medicare
You pay 1.45% of all wages. If your wages are above $200,000, you pay an extra 0.9% on the amount over $200,000.

Florida's minimum wage is $15.00 an hour starting September 30, 2026. Tipped workers must receive at least $11.98 an hour in direct pay, and tips must bring them up to $15.00. A full-time worker at $15.00 an hour earns about $31,200 a year before tax ($15 × 40 hours × 52 weeks). Choose Hourly in the calculator to see that paycheck. If you want to turn an hourly rate into a yearly salary first, use our hourly to salary calculator.
What this calculator does not include
This is a quick estimate, not a full payroll run. It does not include 401(k) or other retirement savings, health insurance, bonuses, tax credits, dependents, garnishments, or the special federal deductions for qualified tips and overtime. If you work extra hours, use the overtime pay calculator to estimate your gross pay first. Federal government workers can use the federal employee paycheck calculator, which includes FERS, TSP, and FEHB. Self-employed people pay tax differently, so a freelancer should start with the freelance rate calculator.
Tax rules change. This estimate is for education only and is not tax, legal, or payroll advice. For a closer estimate, use the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator or ask a tax professional.
