New York withholding: 9 brackets up to 10.9%
New York takes a graduated bite for a single filer: 3.9% on the first $8,500 of taxable wages, rising to 10.9% on wages over $25,000,000. The $8,000 standard deduction comes off first ($16,050 for joint filers).
The calculator withholds from New York's 2026 rate schedule. At the default $75,000 salary, each extra $1,000 of pay adds $50.76 of New York tax a year.
New York City and Yonkers levy a separate local income tax that is not included here.
