Tennessee Paycheck Calculator
Source: IRS Revenue Procedure 2025-32 · Source verified July 22, 2026
A Tennessee paycheck calculator is a payroll utility designed to estimate take-home pay for salaried or hourly employees working in the state of Tennessee. Because Tennessee has no personal state income tax on earned wages, the calculator computes net pay by applying only federal tax withholdings, including federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare (FICA). The tool adjusts calculations based on payroll frequency, tax filing status, and pre-tax or post-tax deductions. Employees use this tool to estimate net earnings and verify employer payroll calculations.
Enter gross pay, pay frequency, filing status, and deductions. The calculator estimates your Tennessee take-home pay using federal brackets, FICA, and state tax rules.

About Tennessee income tax
Tennessee does not levy a general state income tax on wages or salaries (its tax on interest and dividends was fully repealed). Your paycheck will only have federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare withholding.

How it works
Formula · Net pay = gross − pre-tax − federal tax − Social Security − Medicare − post-tax
The calculator annualizes gross pay, subtracts pre-tax deductions and the federal standard deduction, applies 2026 federal brackets and FICA, and then calculates state taxes based on the tax structure of Tennessee.
