Overtime at $32 an hour
Hours over 40 in a week are paid at least time and a half for non-exempt workers: $48.00 an hour at $32. Ten overtime hours add $480.00 to the week before tax. For 2025 through 2028, the extra half — $16.00 of each overtime hour — can be deducted on your federal return, up to $12,500 a year (how it works); your paycheck is still withheld as usual.
