Paycheck taxes in Arizona — what to expect

State withholding on a Arizona paycheck is a single flat 2.50% line, so it scales exactly with pay: a 10% raise moves the state line 10%, whatever the pay period. Arizona's state standard deduction is $15,750 for single filers and $31,500 for married filing jointly in 2026.

For a single filer earning $75,000, roughly $2,311.97 lands in the bank each biweekly payday in Arizona (about $5,009.26 on a monthly cycle) after estimated federal and state tax and FICA.

Withholding here follows 2026 tables from Arizona Department of Revenue (https://azdor.gov/news-center/ador-outlines-executive-order-and-2025-tax-year-income-tax-forms). Your actual stub also reflects W-4 elections, pre-tax benefits and 401(k) deferrals, so treat these figures as the baseline before those adjustments.
