Does Alaska really have no state income tax?
Yes — Alaska levies no state income tax on wages for 2026. You still pay federal income tax, 6.2% Social Security (up to $184,500 of wages), and 1.45% Medicare.
Does this include Social Security and Medicare (FICA)?
Yes. The calculator applies the 2026 FICA rules: 6.2% Social Security on wages up to $184,500, 1.45% Medicare on all wages, and the 0.9% Additional Medicare Tax above $200,000 (single).
Do 401(k) contributions change the result?
Pre-tax 401(k) contributions reduce your federal and state income tax, but not FICA — payroll taxes are computed on your full gross wages. Use the pre-tax field to model this correctly.
Are city or county taxes included?
No. This tool covers 2026 federal tax, FICA, and Alaska state income tax. Local income taxes (where they exist) are listed as a note in the rate-structure section but are not part of the math.
Where do these numbers come from?
Federal figures come from IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32, the FICA wage base from the SSA, and state figures from the Tax Foundation's 2026 tables. The verification date and links are shown in the sources block at the bottom of this page.
