Paycheck taxes in Florida
Florida has no state income tax — the Florida Constitution prohibits a personal income tax, and no Florida city or county levies one either. A Florida paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% up to $184,500 in 2026), and Medicare (1.45%). On a $1,000 weekly paycheck, a single filer keeps about $845 in 2026.
Florida funds state services largely through sales and tourism taxes instead. There is no Florida W-4 and no state withholding to adjust: the only lever on your paycheck is your federal Form W-4. Florida employers do pay a state reemployment (unemployment) tax, but that comes out of the employer's pocket, never your paycheck.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Florida have a state income tax?
- No. Florida's constitution bans a personal income tax, and there are no local income taxes. Only federal income tax and FICA come out of a Florida paycheck.
- Why did my paycheck go up when I moved from New York to Florida?
- You stopped paying state (and possibly city) income tax. On a $75,000 salary that can be worth $3,000–$5,000 a year compared with a high-tax state, before cost-of-living differences.
- Do Florida retirees pay state tax on pensions or Social Security?
- No — Florida has no income tax of any kind on individuals, so pensions, IRA withdrawals, and Social Security are all untaxed at the state level. Federal tax may still apply.
- Is there a Florida W-4 form?
- No. Because there is no state withholding, Florida employees only complete the federal Form W-4.
