What is not in the state income tax number
The state line here is income tax only. Federal income tax follows IRS Publication 15-T, and Social Security and Medicare are the same in every state. New York also has payroll programs that come out of the check; the New York paycheck calculator lists them in the result. City or county wage tax is not included in the table; the paycheck calculator lets you add it.
