? Frequently asked questions

How is take-home pay calculated?

Gross pay minus pre-tax deductions gives taxable wages; we subtract the standard deduction, apply the 2024 federal brackets for your filing status, add FICA on gross wages, and apply your entered state rate. What's left is your estimated net pay.

Which year's tax brackets does it use?

The 2024 US federal tax year: the IRS marginal brackets, the standard deduction ($14,600 single / $29,200 married filing jointly) and 2024 FICA rates and wage base.

Why doesn't it match my paycheck exactly?

Real paychecks reflect credits, itemized deductions, local taxes, benefit elections and employer-specific withholding. This is a simplified estimate — treat it as a close guide, not an exact figure.
