Federal taxes on every Florida paycheck
Wherever you work in the U.S., three federal items come out of each paycheck. Federal income tax is withheld with the IRS percentage method: your employer annualizes your pay, subtracts $8,600 ($12,900 if married filing jointly) unless you checked the two-jobs box on Form W-4, applies the 2026 withholding brackets of 10% to 37%, and subtracts $2,200 for each child under 17 you claimed. Social Security takes 6.2% of wages up to $184,500, and Medicare takes 1.45%, plus 0.9% on wages above $200,000.
