Utah Paycheck Calculator

See your real take-home pay in Utah after federal tax, UT state tax, FICA, 401(k), and health insurance.

Utah keeps things simple with a flat 4.5% income tax — every dollar of taxable wages is taxed at the same rate, no brackets to climb. Combined with federal income tax and 7.65% FICA, that flat rate determines how much of your salary actually reaches your bank account. The calculator below breaks down a Utah paycheck line by line, including 401(k) and health insurance deductions.

Utah tax notes

  • Utah's flat 4.5% applies to nearly all income; instead of a deduction, Utah offers a taxpayer credit that phases out with income — not modeled here.
