How much money is taken out of your check because of taxes?

The general rule of thumb is between 25-35% but it depends on how many dependents you have, how many you're claiming on your W2 or if you're self employed, etc.

To find out exactly how much is taken out of your check because of taxes, you'd need to figure the state tax, federal tax, the social security tax (fica) and then other things as well. After you know what your employer will take (you can ask) then you'll know. You can also consult the tax tables at the irs website, irs.gov.
