How the income tax calculator works
Each estimate takes your taxable income, subtracts the state’s own standard deduction or personal exemption where it has one, and applies that state’s rate: a single flat rate, graduated brackets, or nothing at all for the states that levy no income tax. Nine U.S. states tax no wage income; three of them (Texas, Florida, and Washington) are covered here and return $0.
These are annual-bracket estimates for state income tax only. They exclude federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare, local taxes, and credits. Where a 2026 figure has not yet been finalized by a state, the calculator says so plainly rather than inventing a number. This is general information, not tax advice.
