Your paycheck doesn't match your salary — and it never did. Federal withholding, state tax, Social Security (6.2% on the first $176,100 in 2026), Medicare (1.45% on all wages, 2.35% above $200k), 401(k) contributions, health insurance premiums, and any pre-tax deductions all come out before the number you actually see. Every calculator here uses the current IRS withholding tables (Pub 15-T) and the Social Security Administration's 2026 contribution limits. We don't estimate — we cite.
