How US Payroll Taxes & FICA Are Calculated
Every US paycheck is subject to mandatory federal payroll taxes under FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act). FICA consists of 6.2% Social Security tax (capped at the 2026 wage base of $184,500) and 1.45% Medicare tax (uncapped, with an additional 0.9% surtax on earnings over $200,000 for single filers).
Federal income tax is withheld progressively using IRS bracket calculations based on your Form W-4 elections. Pre-tax contributions to traditional 401(k) accounts, FSAs, and HSAs lower your federal and state taxable income.
