Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Detroit levies a city income tax of 2.4% for Detroit residents and 1.2% for non-residents who work in Detroit. Several other Michigan cities also have local income taxes.

Michigan provides a personal exemption of $5,400 per exemption (2024). Each taxpayer claims one exemption for themselves, one for a spouse (if married filing jointly), and one per dependent.

It depends on your birth year. Michigan reformed its retirement tax in 2023: taxpayers born before 1946 generally pay no state tax on retirement income. Social Security is fully exempt for all.

FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) funds Social Security and Medicare. Employees pay 6.2% of wages toward Social Security (up to the $176,100 wage base in 2026) and 1.45% toward Medicare with no cap. These deductions apply in every state — they are federal, not state, taxes.

Gross pay is your salary or hourly wages before any deductions. Net pay (take-home pay) is what you actually receive after federal income tax, FICA, state income tax, and any voluntary deductions like health insurance or 401(k) contributions are withheld. This calculator shows both.
