What comes out of a Mississippi paycheck
Mississippi cut its rate to 4% for 2026 and does not tax the first $10,000 of taxable income. The rate is scheduled to keep falling in future years.
Local taxes: Mississippi cities and counties generally do not levy a separate income tax on wages.
Every US worker also pays federal income tax (10% to 37% after the 2026 standard deduction of $16,100 single or $32,200 married), Social Security tax of 6.2% on wages up to $184,500, and Medicare tax of 1.45% on all wages (plus 0.9% above $200,000). Traditional 401(k) contributions and employer health premiums are taken out before income tax, which lowers your tax bill.
