How South Dakota taxes your paycheck in 2026
South Dakota is one of nine states with no tax on wage income. Your paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax (10% to 37% across seven brackets, after the $16,100 federal standard deduction) and FICA: 6.2% Social Security on wages up to $184,500 plus 1.45% Medicare on everything. On identical salaries, that typically leaves more in your pocket here than in states that tax wages.
