Mississippi Paycheck Taxes
Mississippi withholds state income tax using its 2026 withholding method (flat (transitional)), in addition to federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Mississippi have state income tax?
Yes. Mississippi is phasing toward a flat rate, and the calculator uses your 2026 filing status and the total exemption amount you claim on Form 89-350.
What taxes are deducted from a Mississippi paycheck?
Federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and Mississippi state income tax. Mississippi has no additional statewide employee payroll tax and no local income tax.
How does the Mississippi exemption amount work?
Unlike states that count allowances, Mississippi's Form 89-350 has you write a total dollar exemption amount directly (covering yourself, age, blindness, and dependents combined), which reduces your Mississippi taxable wages before the rate is applied.
