How Salary, Overtime & Bonus Are Taxed
Regular salary, overtime pay (time‑and‑a‑half or double time), and bonuses are all considered taxable ordinary income. Your employer withholds federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%), Medicare (1.45%), plus state and local taxes. Bonuses may have a flat supplemental withholding rate (22% federal), but your total annual tax liability depends on your bracket. This calculator uses a combined tax rate to give a realistic net estimate for any pay period.

Smart Strategies to Keep More Overtime & Bonus Money
- Boost pre‑tax retirement contributions: Increase 401(k) or 403(b) contributions when you receive a bonus or earn overtime — reduces taxable income.
- Adjust W‑4 withholding: If you regularly earn overtime/bonus, update your W‑4 to avoid over-withholding or underpayment penalties.
- Consider HSA/FSA contributions: Use pre‑tax dollars for medical or dependent care expenses to lower your taxable earnings from extra pay.
- Time your bonus: If possible, receive bonus in a lower-income year or spread it to manage marginal tax brackets.
