Does Idaho have state income tax?

Idaho charges a flat 5.30% on taxable income after a $15,750 standard deduction ($31,500 married). 5.3% from 2025 (was 5.695%).

What is the Idaho take-home pay on $100,000?

About $74,715 a year for a single filer in Idaho ($6,226 a month), or $81,080 for a Idaho married couple filing jointly with one earner. That is after $13,170 federal tax, $7,650 FICA and $4,465 Idaho tax.

Why does my real Idaho paycheck differ from this?

This spreads your annual Idaho liability evenly across the year. Your Idaho employer withholds from each check using your W-4 and IRS Publication 15-T, and the difference is settled on your tax return. Pre-tax benefits, bonuses and overtime also move individual checks.

How much does one child change the tax on $67,373?

The child tax credit is worth $2,200 per qualifying child under 17 and comes off the tax itself, not the income. On $67,373 it takes federal tax from $5,992 to $3,792 and lifts take-home to $58,427.

What is $67,373 a year per day?

About $258 gross per working day, across the 261 weekdays in the year, or $215 after federal tax and FICA. Payroll usually divides by 260 or 261 for part-month pay, so it is worth asking which yours uses.

If you live in Idaho but work elsewhere

Idaho has no reciprocity agreements. If you work in another state that taxes income you file a non-resident return there and a resident return here, claiming a credit so the same income is not taxed twice. How cross-state income tax works.
