How the Ohio paycheck calculator works
This calculator estimates your take-home pay by applying four layers of US payroll taxes to your gross annual salary: federal income tax, Ohio state income tax, Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%). High earners pay an additional 0.9% Medicare surtax above the IRS threshold.
Federal income tax
Federal tax uses progressive brackets ranging from 10% to 37%. Each dollar is taxed only at the rate of the bracket it falls into — this is called your marginal rate, not your effective rate. The calculator applies the 2025 IRS brackets (Rev. Proc. 2024-40) and the $15,000 standard deduction for single filers.
Ohio state income tax
Ohio uses progressive state tax brackets sourced from Ohio Department of Taxation (tax.ohio.gov), 2025 tax year. The state standard deduction is automatically applied based on your filing status. Ohio exempts the first $26,050 of income, then taxes 2.75% up to $100,000 and 3.125% above it for 2025 (the top rate becomes a flat 2.75% in 2026). Many Ohio cities levy a separate local income tax (commonly 2%–2.5%) that this estimate does not include.
FICA (Social Security + Medicare)
FICA taxes are flat: 6.2% Social Security on wages up to the 2025 cap of $176,100, plus 1.45% Medicare on all wages. Single filers earning over $200,000 pay an additional 0.9% Medicare surtax on income above that threshold.
