How Arizona paycheck taxes work
Arizona taxes wages at a flat 2.50% on income above the federal standard deduction ($16,100 single). Every Arizona employee still pays federal income tax on income above the $16,100 standard deduction (single), 6.2% Social Security up to $184,500, and 1.45% Medicare on all wages. Flat 2.5% at all income levels and filing statuses. Arizona ties its standard deduction to the federal amounts - its published figures match the federal standard deduction exactly - so the tax is modelled on federal taxable income rather than by copying the federal figure into a state field, which would go stale each year.
