Frequently asked questions

- No. Texas is one of nine US states with no state income tax. Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, and every other TX city also have no local income tax on wages. Your paycheck math is federal + FICA only.
- Is there a Dallas city or DFW metro income tax?
- No. The City of Dallas, Dallas County, and the broader Dallas–Fort Worth metro do not impose an income tax. Property tax is high in Texas to compensate, but property tax does not appear on your pay stub.
- Does Texas have SDI or PFL?
- No. Texas does not have a state-mandated SDI or Paid Family Leave program. Your paycheck has federal + FICA only.
- What lines should I expect on a Dallas paycheck?
- Federal income tax. Social Security (6.2% to $184,500). Medicare (1.45%). Optional pre-tax 401(k), HSA, FSA, Section 125 health. Optional post-tax Roth 401(k). No state or local tax lines.
- How does Dallas compare to nearby Oklahoma City or Albuquerque?
- A Dallas worker on the same gross keeps more in state-level deductions because Oklahoma is progressive (0.25% to 4.75% in 2025) and New Mexico is progressive (1.7% to 5.9%). On $75,000 gross, a Dallas worker keeps roughly $2,500–$3,500 more per year than an OKC or ABQ counterpart in state tax alone.
