State Tax Tip
State income tax is on top of your federal bill. Most states also have local taxes. Always estimate both layers before setting your withholding.
State Income Tax: What to Know for 2025
State income tax rates vary widely -- from 0% in states like Texas, Florida, and Wyoming, to over 13% in California. Use each state calculator page to see local brackets, rates, standard deductions, and filing thresholds for 2025. All federal income tax estimates use the same 2025 IRS brackets.
State and federal income tax are calculated and owed separately -- a $0 state tax bill in a no-tax state does not reduce your federal obligation. Every state page on this site sources its brackets directly from that state's Department of Revenue, cited on the page, following the same methodology described on our About page.
