does your city tax your pre-deduction income?

it makes me so mad that the city i work in taxes my pre-deduction income! they tax %1 of your full salary, including all 401k/ira/hsa contributions.

i had no idea something like that was even legal! does anyone else live/work in a city like that?
 
Yes, every city that I've worked in KY was that way. No deductions whatsoever.

Ours is around 2.25%, IIRC. Would love to have 1%.

Edit: 2.75%..🙁

Nope, only federal (or is it provincial?) income tax. Then more taxes when I buy stuff, then city taxes on top of that. Only way to avoid paying taxes is to be dead. Even then, pretty sure tomb stones, coffins etc have tax on them too. 😛

We don't pay taxes on any kind of prize won through any kind of lotto system though.
 
Yeap. I pay 3.89 city tax on income for Philly. You pay this weather you live or work in the city. Although I live 35 min outside the actual city it sucks. I also have to pay about 2 bucks a check for working in kop area too.
 
California does not allow city or local income tax.

If that's the case, then California's tax rate really isn't as much more then many other states (when city tax factored in) tax rates, especially when you consider that most cities taxes are on 100% of income.
 
Yep, I pay the Philly wage tax. ~3.5% currently (non-resident) but that'll go up to ~3.9% once I move inside the city limits. 🙁
