Arizona Paycheck Calculator

This Arizona paycheck calculator helps you estimate your take-home pay after federal, state, and payroll taxes are subtracted.

How the Arizona Paycheck Calculator Works

This Arizona paycheck calculator helps you figure out how much money you take home after taxes when working in Arizona. You enter how much you make each year (your gross salary), how often you get paid, and your filing status (like if you’re single or married). Then it shows how much money is taken out for taxes and what you get to keep, your net pay.

Key Terms Explained In This Calculator

• Gross Salary: This is the total amount of money you earn before any taxes are taken out.
• Filing Status: This tells the government if you are single, married, or head of household. It affects how much tax you pay.
• Pay Frequency: How often you get paid—weekly, monthly, or yearly.
• Federal Income Tax: Money taken by the U.S. government. A standard deduction is subtracted before taxes are calculated.
• Arizona State Tax: Arizona takes a flat 2.5% from your gross pay.
• Social Security Tax: Takes 6.2% of your income to help with retirement and disability programs.
• Medicare Tax: Takes 1.45% of your income to support health care for older adults.
• Net Salary: What’s left after all taxes are taken out. This is your take-home pay.

Example

If you earn $55,000 a year and file as Single, the calculator subtracts:

• Federal tax after taking out the standard deduction
• 2.5% for Arizona state tax
• 6.2% for Social Security
• 1.45% for Medicare

The rest is your take-home pay, shown in the Net Salary box.
