2. Disposable earnings are different from gross pay or take-home pay. They
are the earnings left after deducting the part which state or federal law requires an
4 employer to withhold as mandatory deductions. Generally, these mandatory
deductions are federal income tax, social security (FICA) tax, state income tax, state
5 disability insurance, and payments to public employee retirement systems.
Disposable earnings can change from pay period to pay period, whenever gross pay
6 or required deductions change.
