How to Use This Calculator

Step 1: Enter Your Bonus

Input your gross bonus amount before any deductions. This is the total bonus your employer has offered you.

Step 2: Select Options

Choose your filing status and enter your state income tax rate. Select the flat 22% method (most common) or the percentage method for a more precise estimate.

Step 3: View Your Net Bonus

The calculator shows federal tax, state tax, total deductions, and your estimated take-home bonus amount.

Q: Why is the bonus tax rate 22%?

The IRS requires employers to withhold at a flat 22% supplemental rate for bonuses under $1 million. This is separate from your regular income tax brackets. You may get a refund or owe more when filing your tax return.
