How Alaska paycheck taxes work

Alaska is one of nine states that levy no state income tax on wage income. That means your paycheck is only reduced by federal tax and FICA (Social Security and Medicare) — there’s no separate state withholding line.

What else affects your Alaska paycheck

Every paycheck, regardless of state, also has federal income tax and FICA (6.2% Social Security + 1.45% Medicare) withheld. Alaska’s state tax is calculated on top of those federal deductions.

Frequently asked questions

Does Alaska have a state income tax?+

No. Alaska is one of nine U.S. states that do not tax wage income. You’ll still have federal income tax and FICA withheld from your paycheck, but no state income tax line.

How much is taken out of a $60,000 salary in Alaska?+

For a single filer with no pre-tax deductions, a $60,000 salary in Alaska faces roughly $5,000 in federal tax and $4,590 in FICA — with no state income tax on top, since Alaska doesn’t tax wages.

Is this Alaska paycheck calculator accurate for tax filing?+

This tool gives a simplified estimate for budgeting purposes using Alaska’s published 2026 rate schedule. It doesn’t account for itemized deductions, tax credits, or every local rule. Use it to plan, not to file — consult a tax professional or the Alaska Department of Revenue for your exact liability.

How this estimate is built: federal tax uses the 2026 IRS brackets and standard deduction (Revenue Procedure 2025-32). FICA uses the 2026 Social Security wage base of $184,500 (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%, +0.9% above $200,000 single / $250,000 joint). Alaska tax uses the state’s 2026 published rate structure. This is a simplified estimate — it excludes local/city taxes, itemized deductions, tax credits, and other withholding adjustments. For an exact figure, use the official Alaska withholding calculator or consult a tax professional.
