How Tennessee taxes wages

No state income tax is withheld from wages in Tennessee. You still pay federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% up to $184,500) and Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% above $200,000). Note that some no-tax states levy other charges: Washington, for example, has paid-leave payroll premiums. Full sources and assumptions: US methodology.

Frequently asked questions

Is this Tennessee calculator the same as my paycheck withholding?

No. This is the annual tax-liability view (2026 brackets and deductions). Per-paycheck withholding follows your W-4 and state withholding certificate and reconciles at filing time.

What is not included for Tennessee?

Nothing on the income-tax side: there is no state wage tax. Other payroll charges (e.g. paid-leave premiums) may exist. Federal figures are exact per IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32.
