Best Answer

The employer will take out the SSIC, Federal Income Tax and State Income Tax and perhaps city taxes. The amounts are going to depend on what tax bracket you are in. It can vary a great deal based on the amount you make and how you fill out the withholding forms.

You should get this information from your employer payroll department as they will be the one that would know how much FICA, federal income tax, state income, local taxes, etc that they will have to withhold from your hourly pay or gross pay for the pay period.

After the withheld amount for all taxes is subtracted from your gross wages (earned income) your paycheck will be issued for the net amount of your earning (wages).

Do you pay both income tax and self employment tax because you are self employed?

Yes. The "self-employment tax" is actually the Social Security and Medicare tax. If you work for someone else, you would have Social Security and Medicare tax taken out of your paycheck and your employer would match the amounts that were taken out. When you are self-employed, instead of having these amounts taken out of your paycheck, you pay both the employee and the employer share directly to the government.
