How Alabama taxes income
Alabama has 3 brackets for a single filer, so the rate on your last dollar is higher than your overall rate.
Some Alabama cities levy an occupational tax on wages, which this calculator does not include.
What this does not include
- Local or city income tax, which Alabama allows
- Dependants, children, and credits that have to be claimed on a return
- Post-tax deductions, such as health insurance premiums
- Anything on a W-4 beyond filing status
- Head of household and married filing separately, which are not modelled
