How New Hampshire paychecks are taxed
New Hampshire doesn't tax wages, so your paycheck only loses federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare (plus whatever deductions your employer takes, such as 401(k) or health premiums).
New Hampshire's old tax on interest and dividends ended in 2025, and it never applied to wages.
Federally, employers use the IRS percentage method (Publication 15-T, 2026), plus 6.2% Social Security up to $184,500 of wages and 1.45% Medicare (another 0.9% on wages over $200,000).
