Tennessee Income Tax Guide

Tennessee does not levy a personal income tax on wages, which means residents keep more of their paycheck compared to high-tax states like California or New York.

In addition to federal income tax, all employees pay FICA taxes: 6.2% for Social Security (up to the annual wage base) and 1.45% for Medicare with no cap.
