Calculate your New York take-home pay
How your New York paycheck is calculated
Your paycheck is your gross pay minus federal income tax and FICA. For 2026, this calculator applies the seven federal brackets (10% to 37%) to your taxable income — your gross pay minus any pre-tax deductions and the $16,100 single standard deduction. FICA adds Social Security at 6.2% (on wages up to the $184,500 cap) and Medicare at 1.45% on all wages, with an extra 0.9% above $200,000.
New York charges a progressive state income tax (3.9% to 10.9%) on income above the $8,000 single standard deduction. This new york salary calculator subtracts federal tax, FICA and New York State income tax. It estimates New York State tax only — if you live in the city, a new york city tax paycheck calculator must add NYC local tax on top, which this tool does not include.

Frequently asked questions
Is this New York salary calculator free?
Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser.
Does this include New York City tax?
No. This estimates New York State income tax only. NYC residents owe an additional city income tax (about 3.078% to 3.876%), so a new york city tax paycheck calculator would show a lower take-home.
How accurate is this New York paycheck calculator?
It uses 2026 federal and New York State brackets, the $16,100 federal and $8,000 New York single standard deductions and FICA, assuming single filing and excluding NYC tax. Treat results as an estimate.
What are New York's 2026 state tax rates?
New York State uses graduated rates from 3.9% up to 10.9%, applied after the $8,000 single standard deduction. The lowest brackets were cut for 2026.
What is the difference between gross and net pay?
Gross pay is your salary before deductions. Net, or take-home, pay is what remains after federal tax, FICA and New York State income tax are withheld.
