Questions

Does Indiana tax wages?

Indiana taxes wages. Statutory estimate, not the employer wage table. The top rate used on this page is 2.95%.

Is this the amount an employer will withhold?

Federal withholding uses IRS Publication 15-T. The state line is an estimate of the statutory tax, not the state wage-bracket table, so the stub can differ.

What else is withheld?

Social Security is 6.2% up to $184,500. Medicare is 1.45%, plus 0.9% after $200,000 from one employer. Payroll programs we could verify are listed on the paycheck.

Does Indiana have local wage tax?

A local rate can be typed. It starts at 0% because city and county rates were not verified one by one.

Why might my pay stub differ?

This page assumes you live and work in the same state. Reciprocity, pre-tax benefits, and a different allowance count can change the state line.
