Alabama runs a narrow three-bracket schedule that reaches its top rate at a low income level, so almost every full-time salary is taxed at the same marginal rate. The withholding form asks for both a filing status and a dependent count, and the two interact — dependents reduce the amount subject to tax rather than granting a flat credit. Some Alabama municipalities levy occupational taxes collected by the employer; those are separate from the state tax and are not part of this calculation.
Every figure on this page is transcribed from a published source and carries the date it was read. Where two sources disagree, the disagreement is recorded rather than resolved silently.
This is an estimate of payroll withholding, not tax advice, and not a prediction of your final tax bill. Withholding is what your employer sends in during the year; what you actually owe is settled when you file.
