How it works

This calculator estimates your paycheck based on income, pay frequency, filing status, dependents and state.

State income tax is estimated using simplified state-specific or fallback rates and may differ from actual state withholding.

Important: This is an estimate calculator, not a complete payroll or tax-withholding system. Actual results may differ because tax withholding, state and local taxes, benefits and deductions can vary. Verify important tax calculations with the applicable tax authorities.
