This calculator provides estimates only and is not tax, legal or accounting advice. Federal tax uses the 2026 IRS withholding formula (Publication 15-T, Worksheet 1A) assuming a standard Form W-4 with no additional adjustments. New Jersey state tax uses the official 2025 withholding formula from NJ Div. of Taxation — NJ-WT Withholding Rate Table A, assuming standard withholding with no additional allowances or credits. It also uses the 2026 Social Security wage base. It assumes Single or Married Filing Jointly status, does not account for local taxes, additional allowances/credits, overtime rules or benefit-specific pre-tax treatment (pre-tax deductions are assumed to reduce wages subject to withholding). Actual withholding depends on your W-4, employer payroll system and individual circumstances. Consult a tax professional or payroll provider for exact figures.
