How Utah taxes wages

Statutory estimate: 4.45% minus a taxpayer credit. Utah taxes income at 4.45% for 2026 (S.B. 60, effective May 6, 2026, retroactive to January 1, 2026) and then subtracts a taxpayer credit. The full credit on the January 2026 table is $966 single and $1,932 joint, which is 6% of the federal standard deduction. The credit phases out as income rises. The phaseout thresholds used here are the 2025 dollar amounts printed in the Tax Foundation footnote, because the 2026 thresholds were not in that table. Source: Utah State Tax Commission.

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. Utah has no employee local wage tax in this calculator.
