What is withheld on a Alaska pay stub

Every pay stub shows gross pay, each deduction, and net pay for the period and the year to date. These are the employee taxes that apply in Alaska for 2026.

Federal income tax

Withheld from the employee’s Form W-4 using the IRS Publication 15-T method. Same in every state.Source

Social Security

6.2% of wages up to the 2026 wage base of $184,500.Source

Medicare

1.45% of all wages, plus 0.9% Additional Medicare Tax on wages above $200,000 in the year.Source

Alaska income tax

Alaska does not tax wages, so a Alaska pay stub has no state income tax line.Source

Disability and paid leave

None

Local income taxes

None. No state income tax and no local income or wage tax withheld from employee paychecks.

Other employee withholding

Unemployment insurance employee contribution: 0.50% of wages in 2026 on the first $54,200 (max $271.00 per year).

Alaska wage rules that shape a pay stub

Minimum wage

$14.00 an hour as of October 6, 2026. Rose from $13.00 to $14.00 on July 1, 2026 under Ballot Measure 1 (2024).Source

Pay frequency

At least monthly; semimonthly or monthly at the employer's option.Source

Pay stub law

Alaska requires employers to give each employee a written or electronic statement of earnings and deductions for each pay period. It must show the pay rate, gross and net wages, pay period dates, straight time and overtime hours worked, and each deduction (federal income tax, FICA, Alaska unemployment contributions, board or lodging, advances and other authorized deductions).Source

Employer unemployment tax

Paid by the employer on the first $51,700 of each employee’s wages (2025 wage base). It is an employer cost and does not reduce the employee’s net pay.
