How Idaho taxes your paycheck in 2026

Idaho has a flat 5.3% income tax rate (converted from progressive in 2023).

When you look at your Idaho paycheck, you'll see several deductions: federal income tax (withheld based on your W-4 and filing status), FICA (Social Security at 6.2% and Medicare at 1.45%), and a flat 5.30% Idaho state tax on your taxable income.

Federal tax brackets for 2026

Before your Idaho tax, the IRS takes federal income tax. The 2026 federal brackets (for a single filer, Rev. Proc. 2025-32) are:

Income range Rate
$0 – $12,400 10%
$12,400 – $50,400 12%

Standard deduction (federal)

For tax year 2026, the federal standard deduction is $16,100 for single filers and $32,200 for married filing jointly.

FICA tax breakdown

FICA is a federal tax, so your Idaho rate is identical to every other state. Your employer pays a matching 6.2% + 1.45% for you (self-employed workers pay both halves).
