Understanding Your Idaho Paycheck

If you're employed, your paycheck will have taxes taken out. Your employer will withhold FICA taxes, which include Medicare and Social Security taxes. Additionally, your employer matches these amounts, effectively doubling the total FICA tax rate.

The amount of tax withheld from your paycheck depends on what you put on your W-4 form. You need to fill out this form when you start a new job or if something significant changes in your life, like having a baby. You can also update your W-4 if you need to adjust your withholding during the year.

The W-4 form has new guidelines from the IRS. It no longer uses total allowances but requires you to enter annual dollar amounts for things like tax credits, non-wage income, and deductions. The form now has a five-step process to enter personal information, claim dependents, and report any extra jobs or income. These changes mainly affect people making adjustments to their withholdings or changing jobs.

Several things can affect how much tax is taken out of your paycheck, such as your marital status and whether you claim dependents. If you don’t withhold enough tax during the year, you might end up with a bigger tax bill when you file your return.

Also, your paycheck size depends on how often you get paid. If you’re paid biweekly, your paychecks will be smaller compared to getting paid once a month.

How You Can Affect Your Idaho Paycheck

Idaho residents have a few ways to change their paycheck size. Besides asking for a raise or working extra hours, you can also choose to withhold a specific amount from each paycheck. For example, if you want $25 taken out of every paycheck, just write $25 on the right line when you fill out a new W-4 form.

How much you withhold depends on your preference. Some people prefer to keep their money throughout the year to invest or save in a high-interest account. Others like getting a larger refund at tax time.

Another way to adjust your paycheck size is by contributing to benefit accounts offered by your employer. For instance, putting money into a flexible spending account (FSA), health savings account (HSA), or pre-tax commuter program can lower your taxable income.

You can also reduce your taxable income by contributing to a 401(k) or 403(b) retirement account. Money goes into these accounts before taxes are taken out, which means you’re taxed on a smaller amount of your paycheck. This could even lower your tax bracket. If possible, consider contributing to these accounts. It helps you save for retirement and reduces your taxable income now.
