๐Ÿ’ต Tax Shelter Advisory: Pre-tax 401(k) contributions lower your taxable gross income, shielding income from your highest marginal tax bracket.

Understanding Your Paycheck Withholdings

Every W-2 paycheck is subject to mandatory federal and state withholdings. Under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA), 6.2% is withheld for Social Security (capped at $168,600) and 1.45% is withheld for Medicare. Contributing to a pre-tax traditional 401(k) or HSA reduces your taxable income, lowering the federal income tax deducted from each paycheck.
