How to Read a Paycheck in Nevada
Understand gross pay, deductions, and net pay on your Nevada pay stub.
By the Nevada Paycheck Calculator team · Updated
Gross pay
Gross pay is your total earnings before any deductions — regular wages, overtime, tips, bonuses, and commissions all count.
Pre-tax deductions
401(k), HSA, FSA, and health insurance premiums come out before federal income tax is calculated. They do not reduce Social Security or Medicare wages.
Taxes on a Nevada paycheck
Expect federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare lines. You should see $0 for Nevada state income tax. Net pay is what lands in your bank account.
