FAQ

How much is $18 an hour part-time after taxes?

At 20 hours a week that is $18,720 a year gross; after FICA and minimal income tax most single filers keep roughly 90% — run your exact rate and hours above.

Do part-time workers get taxes refunded?

Often, yes — if withholding assumed a full-year salary you did not reach, the extra comes back at filing.

Is overtime different for part-timers?

Overtime is based on hours over 40 in a week, not part-time status — a part-timer crossing 40 hours earns time-and-a-half too.

New York City residents pay a separate city income tax; the NYC paycheck calculator works it into the net figure.
