How Connecticut taxes your paycheck
Connecticut’s progressive brackets run from 2% to 6.99%, with a recapture provision for higher earners.
Every U.S. paycheck also has federal income tax (based on the 2025 brackets and your filing status), Social Security (6.2% up to the annual wage base) and Medicare (1.45%). Pre-tax 401(k) and HSA contributions lower the income that both federal and state taxes apply to, so raising your retirement contribution is the simplest way to shrink the tax line.
