New Hampshire paycheck FAQs
Is New Hampshire completely income-tax-free now?
Yes. Wages were never taxed, and the separate interest & dividends tax (5% historically, reduced to 3% by 2024) was repealed for tax periods starting January 1, 2025. No state income tax of any kind remains.
What is withheld from a New Hampshire paycheck?
Only federal amounts: income tax withholding per your W-4, Social Security (6.2% up to $184,500 in 2026), and Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% over $200,000).
I live in New Hampshire but work in Massachusetts — what applies?
Massachusetts taxes income earned in Massachusetts even for NH residents, so your employer withholds Massachusetts tax on those wages. Remote days worked physically in New Hampshire are generally not Massachusetts-taxable — track them carefully.
