How we calculate this

This calculator applies the 2026 IRS federal income tax brackets and standard deduction (Revenue Procedure 2025-32), 2026 Social Security and Medicare rates including the additional Medicare surtax, and the selected state’s 2026 income tax brackets and standard deduction. It does not include local/city taxes, tax credits beyond the standard deduction, or itemized deductions, and is intended as an estimate. For an exact figure specific to your situation, consult a licensed tax professional.
