Florida · tax year 2026

Does Florida tax tips and overtime?

No. Florida has no income tax on wages, so the federal deduction is the whole story here.

Florida has no state individual income tax, so your state withholding is $0.

You keep all of the federal deduction

In most states the headline is only half true: the federal government stops taxing your tips and your state carries on. Here there is no state return to carry on with.

A single filer on $50,000 a year with $8,000 in tips keeps $960 from the federal deduction, and none of it goes back to Florida.

What is still taken out

Social Security and Medicare. The tips and overtime deductions are income tax deductions only — they do not reduce FICA by a cent, in any state. On that same paycheck that is still $3,825a year, and it is the single most misunderstood part of “no tax on tips”.

Your own numbers

Married filing separately cannot claim these deductions at all, so it is not offered here.
