Approximate v2 estimator only — not tax advice. Includes employee FICA, federal income tax (SINGLE, standard deduction), and state income tax. Excludes local/city tax, credits, AMT, NIIT, and itemized deductions.

How it works

Gross pay minus employee FICA, approximate federal income tax, and seeded state income tax. Nine states have no broad wage income tax; their state line is $0. Results use the factory tax seed year (shown on the estimate), not live IRS withholding tables.
