Calculation assumptions
- Bona fide American Samoa resident, single, under age 65, not blind, with one private-sector employer and only American Samoa wage income.
- The published USD 4,400 single standard deduction and one USD 2,800 personal exemption are used.
- The 2000 single tax-rate schedule published with Form 390 is used because taxable income is at least USD 100,000 throughout this supported range.
Coverage & limitations
Rule version AS-2025-v1 · Tax year 2025. See sources, monitoring and verification status.
- Limited 2025 single private-sector employee reference for gross pay from USD 107,200 through USD 176,100. Independent professional verification remains pending.
- The supported range keeps taxable income at or above USD 100,000, where the official tax-rate schedule applies instead of the USD 50 tax table bands.
- The Form 390 minimum tax of 4% of adjusted gross income does not bind in the supported range. The form marks the former 2% wage tax as repealed.
- Other filing statuses, dependants, credits, itemized deductions, alternative minimum tax, government retirement coverage, self-employment and non-territory income are unsupported.
