YOU MUST PAY TAXES

The dividend tax on ordinary dividends are the same as the regular federal income tax rates.

The federal income tax rates range from 10% to 37%

The exact dividend tax rate depends on what kind of dividends you have – ordinary (unqualified) or qualified.
A dividend is qualified if you have held the stock for more than 60 days before the ex-dividend date.

Nonqualified dividends (ordinary), include dividends you may receive, including dividends on employee stock etc
Single filer with $90K income, you will fall in the 24% tax bracket for ordinary dividends.

While qualified dividends, are taxed at the capital gains rates.
