Tap any state on the map to see how it taxes income in 2026. Then scroll down to see the federal brackets and estimate your federal income tax. Everyone pays federal income tax; your state tax comes on top of it.
Alaska and Hawaii are shown in the lower left and are not to scale.
These apply to income earned in 2026 (returns filed in 2027). Each rate applies only to the slice of taxable income inside its range.
2026 standard deduction: {{stdText}}
{{stateLine}}
Uses the 2026 standard deduction and brackets only. It ignores credits, other deductions, capital gains rates, self-employment tax and Social Security and Medicare taxes, so your real number will differ. For education only.
You file two separate returns and pay both. Federal tax uses the brackets above. Your state uses its own rates, deductions and credits, usually starting from your federal AGI. Some cities add a local income tax on top. If you itemize on your federal return, the state income tax you paid can count toward your state and local tax deduction, up to the cap. See What you need to file for how state returns work.
