How This Calculator Works

On a $75,000 salary paid every two weeks, each Mississippi paycheck starts at $2,885. About $295 goes to federal income tax, $221 to Social Security and Medicare and $87 to Mississippi income tax, leaving about $2,282 before any 401(k), insurance or other deductions.

That state withholding is 35th of 51, in the bottom third, $13 less than the typical state per paycheck ($328 over a year).

Among neighboring states, Tennessee leaves the most: about $2,369 per paycheck on the same salary, $87 more than Mississippi. Where you pay income tax depends mainly on where you live and work, so check the rules before moving across a state line.

A real Mississippi pay stub can differ a little from these figures, because the estimate spreads the year's tax evenly across your paychecks instead of using your employer's withholding tables.
