Most that can be tax-free here (GSA)

$1,715/wk

So at least this is taxed wages

$322/wk

≈ $8.94/hr over 36 hrs

If the agency pays the full tax-free stipend, your taxable wage is about $8.94/hr. If they pay less stipend, more of it is taxed.
A low taxable hourly rate means lower overtime, holiday and missed-shift pay, and smaller 401(k) contributions. Ask what overtime pays.
Tax-free stipends generally require a tax home you keep paying for while you travel. Ask a tax professional about your situation.

Estimate from the posted weekly rate and GSA FY2027 per diem limits for this city; assumes 36 hours a week. Not tax advice.
