About Alaska paychecks & taxes
Alaska has no state income tax and no statewide sales tax either — oil revenue funds most of the state budget. Your paycheck is only reduced by federal income tax and FICA, putting Alaska at the very top for take-home pay.
Residents actually get paid by the state: the Permanent Fund Dividend distributes oil-fund earnings to every eligible Alaskan most years. Note that the dividend itself is federally taxable income, and some municipalities levy local sales taxes.
