Estimates, not advice

Every figure on this website is a referential estimate produced by a simplified model. Results assume a single filer taking the 2026 standard deduction, with no dependents, credits, pre-tax benefits, local taxes, or special circumstances. Your real taxes and take-home pay will differ.

Nothing here constitutes tax, legal, accounting, investment or financial advice, and nothing here should be relied on as such. For decisions that matter — accepting a job offer, filing taxes, planning withholding — consult a qualified professional (CPA, enrolled agent, attorney) or the official sources:

• Internal Revenue Service: irs.gov
• Social Security Administration: ssa.gov
• U.S. Department of Labor: dol.gov
• Your state's department of revenue

Model limitations

• Federal tax uses the 2026 brackets and standard deduction only; no itemized deductions, credits (EITC, child tax credit), or AMT.
• FICA uses the employee side only (6.2% Social Security up to $184,500, 1.45% Medicare plus 0.9% over $200,000).
• State tax uses simplified 2026 rates for twelve states; local/city taxes (e.g., NYC) are excluded.
• Hourly conversions assume 52 paid weeks unless stated otherwise.

Currency of information

Parameters are reviewed annually each January. Between updates, legislation may change rates without notice. The tax year each page refers to is stated on the page.
