Questions

How much is $20 an hour after taxes in South Dakota?

Working 40 hours a week at $20 an hour ($41,600 a year), you take home about $685 a week, or $1,369 every two weeks, after federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare.

Does South Dakota have a state income tax?

No. South Dakota doesn't tax wages, so your paycheck only loses federal income tax and FICA (Social Security at 6.2% and Medicare at 1.45%).

How is overtime calculated?

Hours over 40 in a week are paid at one and a half times your hourly rate for non-exempt workers under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Enter those hours in the overtime box; some states also require daily overtime, which isn't modelled here.

Why might my real paycheck differ?

This spreads the year's tax evenly across paychecks for a single filer taking the standard deduction. Your employer's withholding uses your W-4 and IRS tables, and 401(k), health insurance or other pre-tax deductions lower both your taxable pay and your take-home.

South Dakota levies no state income tax.
