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.

Local taxes, state disability, paid leave, residency and interstate rules are not estimated here. Use the main form for additional states and local taxes.
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 .
