A flat 4.99% of Georgia taxable income. HB 463, the Georgia Economic Growth and Tax Relief Act of 2026, cut the rate from 5.19% for tax years starting January 1, 2026. From 2027 the rate is scheduled to fall 0.125 point a year until it reaches 3.99%, and the law can delay each step under its revenue triggers. ### What is Georgia's standard deduction? $15,000 for single, head-of-household and married-filing-separately filers and $30,000 for married couples filing jointly, also set by HB 463 for 2026. Only a joint return gets the $30,000, so the calculator gives a qualifying widow(er) $15,000; Georgia's 2025 instructions put that status at the single amount, and the 2026 booklet isn't out yet. Georgia has no personal exemption for you or your spouse, only a $5,000 exemption per dependent, which the calculator doesn't include. ### How much Georgia tax is withheld from a bonus? 4.99%. Georgia's 2026 employer guide says bonuses are withheld at the income tax rate in effect when they're paid. Employers had to keep withholding 5.19% until the rate change and could switch to 4.99% starting May 11, 2026. ### What does this calculator leave out for Georgia? Georgia starts from federal adjusted gross income, so pre-tax deductions and Georgia's adjustments change your taxable income; the calculator starts from gross wages. It also leaves out the new subtractions for overtime and tips (up to $1,750 each, 2026 through 2028), the retirement income exclusion, the $5,000 dependent exemption and the one-time credit of up to $500. ## Paycheck Calculators for Other States - [Alabama](https://pay44.app/alabama-paycheck-calculator/) - [Alaska](https://pay44.app/alaska-paycheck-calculator/) - [Arizona](https://pay44.app/arizona-paycheck-calculator/) - [Arkansas](https://pay44.app/arkansas-paycheck-calculator/) - [California](https://pay44.app/california-paycheck-calculator/) - [Colorado](https://pay44.app/colorado-paycheck-calculator/) - [Connecticut](https://pay44.app/connecticut-paycheck-calculator/) - [Delaware](https://pay44.app/delaware-paycheck-calculator/) - [District of Columbia](https://pay44.app/dc-paycheck-calculator/) - [Florida](https://pay44.app/florida-paycheck-calculator/) - [Hawaii](https://pay44.app/hawaii-paycheck-calculator/) - [Idaho](https://pay44.app/idaho-paycheck-calculator/) - [Illinois](https://pay44.app/illinois-paycheck-calculator/) - [Indiana](https://pay44.app/indiana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Iowa](https://pay44.app/iowa-paycheck-calculator/) - [Kansas](https://pay44.app/kansas-paycheck-calculator/) - [Kentucky](https://pay44.app/kentucky-paycheck-calculator/) - [Louisiana](https://pay44.app/louisiana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Maine](https://pay44.app/maine-paycheck-calculator/) - [Maryland](https://pay44.app/maryland-paycheck-calculator/) - [Massachusetts](https://pay44.app/massachusetts-paycheck-calculator/) - [Michigan](https://pay44.app/michigan-paycheck-calculator/) - [Minnesota](https://pay44.app/minnesota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Mississippi](https://pay44.app/mississippi-paycheck-calculator/) - [Missouri](https://pay44.app/missouri-paycheck-calculator/) - [Montana](https://pay44.app/montana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Nebraska](https://pay44.app/nebraska-paycheck-calculator/) - [Nevada](https://pay44.app/nevada-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Hampshire](https://pay44.app/new-hampshire-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Jersey](https://pay44.app/new-jersey-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Mexico](https://pay44.app/new-mexico-paycheck-calculator/) - [New York](https://pay44.app/new-york-paycheck-calculator/) - [North Carolina](https://pay44.app/north-carolina-paycheck-calculator/) - [North Dakota](https://pay44.app/north-dakota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Ohio](https://pay44.app/ohio-paycheck-calculator/) - [Oklahoma](https://pay44.app/oklahoma-paycheck-calculator/) - [Oregon](https://pay44.app/oregon-paycheck-calculator/) - [Pennsylvania](https://pay44.app/pennsylvania-paycheck-calculator/) - [Rhode Island](https://pay44.app/rhode-island-paycheck-calculator/) - [South Carolina](https://pay44.app/south-carolina-paycheck-calculator/) - [South Dakota](https://pay44.app/south-dakota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Tennessee](https://pay44.app/tennessee-paycheck-calculator/) - [Texas](https://pay44.app/texas-paycheck-calculator/) - [Utah](https://pay44.app/utah-paycheck-calculator/) - [Vermont](https://pay44.app/vermont-paycheck-calculator/) - [Virginia](https://pay44.app/virginia-paycheck-calculator/) - [Washington](https://pay44.app/washington-paycheck-calculator/) - [West Virginia](https://pay44.app/west-virginia-paycheck-calculator/) - [Wisconsin](https://pay44.app/wisconsin-paycheck-calculator/) - [Wyoming](https://pay44.app/wyoming-paycheck-calculator/)
