How does the Hawaii Paycheck Tax Calculator Work?

Employers in Hawaii have the duty of deducting FICA taxes from your earnings. This includes 1.45% for Medicare taxes and 6.2% for Social Security. To ensure the total contributions are double the amount you receive as payment, your employer will match these deductions.

Moreover, any earnings that exceed a specific threshold are subject to an additional 0.9% in Medicare taxes, which your employer will not match. Individuals who earn more than $200,000, joint filers with an income surpassing $250,000, and married individuals filing separately with an income above $125,000 are required to pay this surtax.

If you are self-employed, you are responsible for paying the entire 2.9% in Medicare taxes and 12.4% in Social Security. However, there is a deduction available to assist self-employed individuals in recovering a portion of the money paid towards these taxes.
