How Mississippi taxes your paycheck in 2026
Mississippi uses 2 tax brackets in 2026. Rates apply to taxable income — your salary minus the $2,300 state standard deduction for single filers. Brackets are marginal: crossing into a higher bracket only raises the rate on income above that threshold, not on your whole salary. Federal income tax and FICA apply on top.
| Taxable income (single filer) | Rate |
|---|---|
| Up to $10,000 | 0% |
| Over $10,000 | 4% |
