    Annual totals are not prorated. Monthly pay is prorated by paid periods. Hourly mode uses total paid hours; include overtime premiums in other earnings. Exclusions are separate totals, not added together: retirement deductions may reduce federal wages without reducing Social Security or Medicare wages. Tips, special exemptions, and complex benefits require manual W-2 entry.

    State estimate

    State estimates use the rate you enter, not automatic state tax tables. Enter a verified effective rate for this state and year; enter 0 when applicable. Blank means not calculated. Local taxes, state disability, paid leave, residency and interstate rules are not estimated here. Use the main form for additional states and local taxes.

    Enter amount.

    Estimates assume regular pay spread evenly over the paid periods, a constant W-4, and standard FICA coverage. Irregular pay, bonuses and paycheck rounding can change actual withholding. These are payroll estimates, not a tax-return calculation. 2025 IRS withholding reference.

    Apply actual withholding from payroll records

    Enter the amounts actually withheld for this year, including 0 when none was withheld. Estimates above are never copied into these fields automatically.

    Calculator inputs are saved with your W-2 when you choose Save draft. Changing calculator inputs does not change the W-2 until you apply them.
