The 2007 individual federal income tax rates are between 10% and 35%, depending on income and 70-236 family status. People with relatively low incomes may pay no income tax, or may receive earned income tax credits (tax benefits); however, this does not include income-based payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare. As of 2004, three-fourths of taxpayers paid more 70-271 in payroll taxes than they do in income taxes.IRS data indicate that the wealthiest 5% of taxpayers (ranked by Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), counting only returns with positive AGI) paid roughly 60% of all income taxes; the bottom 50% of taxpayers account for just 3% of income taxes paid.
Income tax 70-290 may also be levied by individual U.S. states in addition to the federal income tax. Some states also allow individual cities to impose an additional income tax. Most state and local taxes are deductible expenses for federal tax purposes. Not all states levy an income tax
