Lighter-weight variant of the Paycheck Calculator focused on a single per-paycheck output: net deposited dollars. Captures the same inputs but presents the result as a single 'this is what shows up in your bank' number rather than a breakdown.
When you just want the answer fast — no breakdown needed. For deeper analysis (effective tax rate, bracket detail, deduction impact), use the full Paycheck Calculator.
Gross is before taxes and deductions. Take-home is what's deposited after federal income tax + state income tax + FICA + pre-tax deductions (401k, HSA, health insurance). Typically take-home is 70-78% of gross depending on state and deductions.

Yes, mathematically — annual gross divided by 26 (biweekly) is smaller than divided by 24 (semi-monthly). But annual take-home is the same regardless. Biweekly means 2 months per year with 3 paychecks; budget around the typical 2-paycheck months.
401(k) and 403(b) contributions, HSA contributions, traditional FSA contributions (medical + dependent care), and your share of employer health/dental/vision premiums. All reduce federally taxable income; some also reduce FICA-taxable income (FSA, HSA do; 401k doesn't reduce FICA).
0.9% on wages over $200K (single) or $250K (married). It's withheld at the source by your employer when your YTD wages cross the threshold. The calculator includes it when your input exceeds the threshold.
Run the calculator once per job; their take-homes add up. Note: if your combined income pushes you into the Additional Medicare Tax range, the second employer doesn't withhold it (each employer treats their wages independently); you'll owe a small balance at tax time.
Three reasons: (1) your W-4 has extra withholding lines filled; (2) your employer uses a different withholding method (percentage vs aggregate); (3) you have a non-standard pre-tax deduction not in the defaults. Use the Paycheck Calculator for the full breakdown to find the gap.
