以下是引用fly105在2006-7-26 22:05:00的发言：一个在NYC工作的朋友说，他salary是10w刀一年，但是拿到手后只有6w，真的要纳那么多个人所得税么？ 我还打算申请mba呢，但是家里经济基础比较一般还有弟弟在念书，现在在国内的工作不算特别满意但是上升趋势还可以，如果美国真的税率那么高的话那也剩不了多少钱啊 It depends, if you are single, you will have to pay more tax. You need pay federal tax, check this link out for federal tax rate: http://taxes.yahoo.com/rates.html, for a $100k annual income, the tax rate is around 26% You need to pay state tax, in NY state, it ranges from 4% to 6.8%; You need to pay social security and medicare tax, which is about 6%, but you will enjoy retirement benefit after 65 from this part if you still stay in US at that time. So in total , the tax rate is close to 40%, however, you will be able to get a tax return every year because there are some income eligible for federal and state tax deduction, for a married couple, they can claim a $16200 in 2005, which means, you only pay federal tax for the rest $83800; for a single, he/she can only claim a $3100 though......there are many ways to reduce your actual tax, for example, if you buy a house, the interest part you pay can be claimed as a tax deduction....all in all, the actual tax rate will be close to 30% , and be aware the 6% social security tax will eventually be back to you, which is part of welfare system of the U.S. |
