How Alaska withholding works

Alaska has no state income tax on wages, so nothing comes out of your paycheck for state income tax. Federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare still apply.

Alaska also takes these payroll programs from paychecks:

  • Unemployment Insurance (employee share): 0.5% of wages up to $54,200 a year (at most $271.00)
