Florida paycheck FAQs

Does Florida tax paychecks at all?

No. Florida's constitution prohibits a personal income tax, so no state amount is withheld from wages. Only federal income tax and FICA come out of a Florida paycheck.

Is Florida a good state for take-home pay?

Among the best. With zero state income tax, a Florida worker keeps the full state-tax difference compared to, say, California — for a $120,000 single filer that difference is roughly $7,000 per year of state income tax alone.

Do Florida employers withhold anything for the state?

Nothing from employees. Florida employers pay a state reemployment (unemployment) tax themselves, but it never appears on your pay stub as a deduction.
