How Georgia taxes your paycheck
- Flat tax: 4.99% for 2026, cut from 5.19% retroactively to January 1, 2026. The rate is scheduled to keep falling until it reaches 3.99%.
- Standard deduction: $15,000 for single filers and heads of household and $30,000 for married couples filing jointly, plus $5,000 for each dependent.
- Withholding: employers could keep withholding at 5.19% until they switched to the new tables (allowed from May 11, 2026), so early-2026 paychecks may have been slightly over-withheld.
- No local income tax: Atlanta and other Georgia cities do not tax wages, and there is no state disability deduction.
- Tips and overtime: from 2026 Georgia follows the federal deduction for qualified tips and overtime pay.
