Hourly Paycheck Calculator

Worth Knowing

Converting an hourly wage to take-home pay requires assumptions about hours worked and whether any overtime applies, since overtime is typically 1.5× the base rate. The same three deductions — federal tax, state tax, and FICA — apply as for salaried workers. Because hourly income can swing week to week, withholding based on a single check can over- or under-estimate your annual tax, so treat the annualized figure as a rough guide rather than a guarantee.

1. Enter Hourly rate into the first field of the Hourly Paycheck Calculator.
