Why this number differs from a generic paycheck calculator

  • NRAs cannot claim the federal standard deduction.

    Generic calculators silently apply the $16,100 single standard deduction. As a nonresident alien (no applicable treaty), you don't get it — that's roughly $3,542–$3,864 more federal tax at typical bracket rates. IRS Pub 519.

First-year (NRA). You are a nonresident alien (NRA) until you pass the substantial presence test — typically the first calendar year on your visa. NRAs cannot claim the federal standard deduction and cannot file jointly. FICA still applies.

Show the math

  1. Gross salary: $150,000 .
  2. Federal taxable income: $150,000 (after standard deduction of $0).
  3. Federal income tax: $28,598 — computed by stepping through the SINGLE progressive brackets:
    • 10% on income up to $12,400
    • 12% on income up to $50,400
    • 22% on income up to $105,700
    • 24% on income up to $201,775
    • 32% on income up to $256,225
    • 35% on income up to $640,600
    • 37% on income above the previous cap
  4. FICA: Social Security 6.2% on wages up to $184,500 ($9,300); Medicare 1.45% on all wages ($2,175) .
  5. State tax: $0 (income tax $0 + SDI/local $0).
  6. Total tax: $40,073 = 26.72% of gross.
  7. Take-home: $150,000 − $40,073 = $109,927.

Frequently asked questions

Specific to this visa, state, and salary. Sourced to IRS, SSA, and state DOR.

How much does a TN (first-year (nra)) earn after tax on $150,000 in Florida?
A TN holder (first-year (nra)) grossing $150,000 in Florida takes home approximately $109,927 per year, or about $9,161/month. Total federal + state + payroll tax burden: $40,073 (26.72% effective rate).
Are TN holders subject to FICA in this scenario?
Yes. Social Security 6.2% up to $184,500 (2026 wage base), Medicare 1.45% on all wages, plus 0.9% additional Medicare above the filing-status threshold.
Can the standard deduction be claimed in this scenario?
No — as an NRA without an applicable tax treaty, the federal standard deduction is not available. NRAs may itemize state and local taxes paid only.
What state taxes apply in Florida?
Florida does not impose a state income tax on wages. Your $150,000 salary owes $0 in state income tax.
How much would maxing out a 401(k) save me at this income?
Contributing the 2026 IRS limit of $23,500 pre-tax to a 401(k) would reduce federal income tax by roughly $5,640 at your 24.00% marginal federal bracket, plus $0 in state tax. (Note: 401(k) contributions still count as FICA wages, so Social Security and Medicare are unchanged.)
How are bonuses and RSU vesting taxed for TN holders?
Bonuses and RSUs are supplemental wages. Federal supplemental withholding is a flat 22% on amounts up to $1M, then 37% above. Florida applies its standard income-tax rules. FICA still applies if the visa is not FICA-exempt. This is withholding, not the final tax — high earners often underwithhold and owe at filing time.
How much more does a first-year H-1B (NRA) pay vs. a resident H-1B at the same salary?
On $150,000, the NRA's loss of the standard deduction ($16,100 for single 2026) means roughly $3,542–$3,864 more federal tax. The exact difference depends on your marginal bracket — see our methodology.
Where do these numbers come from?
