How this estimate is built
Your take-home pay starts with your gross salary, then subtracts four things: federal income tax (calculated on your salary minus the 2026 standard deduction, across the IRS brackets), Social Security (6.2% up to the annual wage base), Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% on high earnings), and Vermont state income tax. Vermont has four graduated brackets from 3.35% to 8.75%. It sets its own standard deduction and a $5,100 personal exemption, both lower than the federal amounts, so Vermont taxable income differs from federal.
This is an annual-bracket estimate, not the exact amount withheld from each paycheck (employers use IRS withholding tables) and not your final tax bill.
