Mississippi has effectively moved to a flat 4% state income tax, exempting the first $10,000 of taxable income entirely. This Mississippi paycheck calculator combines federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and Mississippi state income tax to show your real 2026 take-home pay.

How Mississippi state income tax works

Mississippi imposes no tax on the first $10,000 of taxable income and a flat 4% on income above that threshold. The same structure applies to both single and joint filers. In practice this functions as a flat tax with a small zero-rate band.

Mississippi offers a state standard deduction of $8,300 single / $16,600 joint, which the calculator subtracts from your wage base before applying the rate. Combined with the $10,000 zero-rate band, lower earners pay very little state tax.
