Frequently asked questions
Which states have no income tax on wages?
Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming do not tax wages. Residents still pay federal income tax and FICA.
Do I still owe state tax if I live in one of these states but work in another?
Possibly. Most states tax income earned within their borders by non-residents, so working in a state with an income tax can create a filing requirement there even if you live in a no-tax state.
Is a no-income-tax state always cheaper to live in?
Not necessarily. Many of these states raise revenue through higher sales, property or other taxes, so the full picture depends on how and where you live.
Simplifications: wages only, standard deduction, no dependents or credits, no local taxes. Federal figures follow IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32 and the SSA 2026 wage base.
