How Georgia taxes a paycheck

Georgia taxes wages at one flat rate, 4.99% of taxable income, whatever the salary.

A single filer subtracts a $15,000 standard deduction before the state rate applies.

Federal income tax uses the IRS 2026 brackets and standard deduction. Social Security is 6.2% of pay up to $184,500 a year and Medicare is 1.45%, plus 0.9% on wages over $200,000.

What the Georgia figure includes

  • Georgia taxes Georgia taxable income at a flat 4.99% for 2026 (Georgia Department of Revenue, 2026 Employer's Tax Guide, updated June 2026). The same guide states that the income tax rate fell from 5.19% to 4.99%. 2026 Form 500 was not published at verification.
  • The 2026 standard deduction is $15,000 single, head of household or married filing separately, and $30,000 married filing jointly. There is no separate personal exemption for the filer. The dependent deduction is $5,000.
  • Georgia credits and other Form 500 adjustments are not modeled. The starting point is gross wages.

Georgia paycheck questions

How much is taken out of a paycheck in Georgia?

On the Georgia median wage of $48,170 (BLS, May 2025), paid every two weeks, about $343.87 of a $1,852.69 paycheck goes to tax: $138.48 federal income tax, $141.73 Social Security and Medicare, and $63.66 Georgia income tax. That leaves $1,508.82.

This assumes a single filer with the standard deduction and no pre-tax deductions such as 401(k) or health premiums, which would lower both the tax and the check.

Does Georgia have a state income tax?

Yes. Georgia taxes wages at one flat rate, 4.99% of taxable income, whatever the salary. The rules come from Georgia Department of Revenue.

What is the Georgia income tax rate for 2026?

Flat 4.99% of taxable income.

How much is $1,000 a week after taxes in Georgia?

About $809.92 a week, or $42,116 a year, for a single filer with the standard deduction in 2026. Federal income tax takes about $78.08 a week and Social Security and Medicare $76.50; Georgia income tax about $35.51.

Why is my real paycheck different from this estimate?

Employers withhold with the IRS percentage method and your W-4, not with an annual estimate split into pay periods. Pre-tax deductions such as a 401(k), health insurance or an HSA lower your taxable pay, and bonuses are often withheld at a flat supplemental rate. Over a full year the two should come close; a single check can differ.
