Frequently Asked Questions
Does my state affect my federal income tax?
No — federal income tax is determined entirely by your income, filing status, and deductions. The IRS applies the same brackets to all Americans regardless of which state they live in. Only your state income tax changes based on where you live. Federal income tax is calculated first, then state income tax is calculated separately.
What is the difference between federal and state income tax?
Federal income tax goes to the US Treasury and is calculated using IRS brackets that apply to all Americans equally. State income tax is levied separately by your state government using state-specific rules and rates that vary significantly — from 0% in no-tax states like Texas and Florida to over 13% in California. You owe both independently; paying more in state tax doesn't reduce your federal liability.
