What's specific to Georgia

How Georgia taxes your paycheck

  • House Bill 463, signed May 11, 2026, lowers Georgia's flat rate from 5.19% to 4.99% for the whole 2026 tax year.
  • The standard deduction rises to $15,000 for single and head of household filers and $30,000 for married couples filing jointly. The dependent deduction rises to $5,000.
  • Employers could keep withholding at 5.19% until May 11, 2026, so tax withheld early in the year may be more than the tax you finally owe, which can mean a refund.
