Sources and limitations
What this calculator leaves out:
- It uses the 2026 federal standard deduction only. It does not model itemized deductions.
- It has no pre-tax deductions such as 401(k) contributions, health insurance premiums or HSA contributions, and no dependents or tax credits.
- It does not include state disability or paid-family-leave payroll premiums, or any city, county or school-district income tax that this page does not list.
- It estimates the year’s tax and spreads it evenly across your paychecks, so your employer’s withholding tables can give a different amount on any single paycheck.
- It assumes you live and work in the same state.
- It is an estimate for planning, not tax advice. Your actual take-home pay depends on your Form W-4 and your employer’s payroll setup.
