How Georgia taxes income

Georgia taxes income at a single flat rate of 4.99%, cut from 5.19% retroactive to January 2026, so your effective state rate does not change as you earn more.

What this does not include

  • Dependants, children, and credits that have to be claimed on a return
  • Post-tax deductions, such as health insurance premiums
  • Anything on a W-4 beyond filing status
  • Head of household and married filing separately, which are not modelled
