How the estimate works
The calculator subtracts the 2026 standard deduction for your filing status, then applies progressive federal tax brackets to the estimated taxable income.
Employee Social Security tax applies up to the 2026 wage base. Medicare tax applies to all covered wages, with an additional Medicare estimate for high earners.
Washington has no state income tax. This is a planning estimate, so actual withholding can differ based on local tax, credits, payroll settings, and employer benefit rules.
