Understanding Your Paycheck

📊

Pre-Tax Deductions

401(k), HSA, and health insurance premiums reduce your taxable income, potentially lowering your tax bill.

🏦

FICA Taxes

Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%) are mandatory payroll taxes totaling 7.65% of your income.

💡

Effective vs Marginal Rate

Your marginal rate is the highest bracket, but your effective rate is what you actually pay overall.

🎯

W-4 Adjustments

Update your W-4 if you consistently owe taxes or get large refunds to better match your withholding.
