Estimate your paycheck after taxes, build a monthly budget, and see how much house you can afford — all in one place.
Federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare on your gross pay.
Estimates use 2026 federal brackets, the 2026 standard deduction, and FICA rates (6.2% Social Security up to the $184,500 wage base, 1.45% Medicare, plus 0.9% Additional Medicare Tax above $200,000). Retirement contributions reduce income tax but not Social Security and Medicare; health and FSA contributions reduce both. State income tax is a simplified 2026 estimate using each state's standard deduction and rates; local taxes, credits, and exemptions aren't included.
Allocate your monthly take-home across expenses, savings, and everything left over.
See how much house you can afford and what the monthly payment looks like.
Affordability caps total monthly housing plus debts at your chosen ratio. This uses your net take-home income carried from the paycheck tab, so the estimate is more conservative than a lender's, since lenders typically apply DTI to gross income. The interest rate is pre-filled with the latest Freddie Mac national average for 30- and 15-year fixed loans; the 20-year and ARM defaults are estimates, since Freddie Mac no longer surveys those loan types. Adjust the rate to a quote you have received. Choosing an adjustable rate lets you set the initial rate and an estimated adjusted rate after the fixed period.
Idaho uses a flat income tax of 5.3% for the 2026 tax year. Every dollar of taxable income is taxed at the same rate, which makes withholding easier to predict than in a state with graduated brackets — a raise never pushes part of your income into a higher band.
Idaho allows a standard deduction of $16,100 for a single filer, so the flat rate applies to what is left after that. On a $60,000 salary that is roughly $43,900 of taxable income and about $2,327 in state tax for the year.
The rate is 5.3%, flat, at every income level, applied after a standard deduction of $16,100 for a single filer ($32,200 married filing jointly, $24,150 head of household).
Because the rate does not change with income, your effective state rate still climbs slightly as you earn more, because a fixed deduction shields a smaller share of a larger salary. The table below shows how that lands at common salaries.
| Taxable income | Rate |
|---|---|
| Every dollar after the $16,100 standard deduction | 5.3% |
Single filer taking the standard deduction of $16,100, 2026 rates. State income tax only — federal tax and FICA come on top of these figures.
| Gross salary | Idaho tax | Per month | Effective rate | Marginal bracket |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $40,000 | $1,267 | $106 | 3.17% | 5.3% |
| $50,000 | $1,797 | $150 | 3.59% | 5.3% |
| $60,000 | $2,327 | $194 | 3.88% | 5.3% |
| $75,000 | $3,122 | $260 | 4.16% | 5.3% |
| $100,000 | $4,447 | $371 | 4.45% | 5.3% |
| $150,000 | $7,097 | $591 | 4.73% | 5.3% |
Idaho applies a single rate of 5.3% to taxable income, so the effective rate climbs only because the standard deduction shrinks as a share of a bigger salary.
