US state income tax calculators.

Federal tax is only the first layer of a US payslip. Each calculator below adds the state's own tax — or confirms there is none — on top of the federal bands and FICA, and shows both lines. For the federal layer on its own, use the United States calculator.

9 states

No state income tax

These states (and only these) levy no tax on wages and salaries. A payslip there carries federal tax and FICA only — plus, in Washington, the WA Cares payroll premium.
