How Mississippi taxes a paycheck

Mississippi taxes wages at a flat 4% for 2026, with the first $10,000 of taxable income exempt. The Build Up Mississippi Act (HB 1, 2025) then steps the rate down 0.25 points a year to 3% by 2030 and toward eventual full elimination.

The 2026 Mississippi standard deduction is $2,300 for a single filer and $4,600 for a married couple filing jointly.

Mississippi allows a personal exemption of $6,000 per filer before its rate applies.

At a $75,000 salary, about 20.9% all-in: federal income tax, Mississippi income tax, Social Security, and Medicare. The share moves with income; the calculator recomputes it for any salary and filing status.
Is this the exact amount my employer will withhold?
No, it is a planning estimate on 2026 tables. Actual withholding follows your W-4 elections, benefit premiums, and any local taxes, so individual paychecks can differ even when the year's total lands close.
