Ohio Paycheck Calculator

See your real take-home pay in Ohio after federal tax, OH state tax, FICA, 401(k), and health insurance.

Ohio uses a progressive income tax, with marginal rates running from 2.75% on the first dollars of taxable income up to 2.75% at the top. Where your salary lands in those brackets — after the state's deduction and any pre-tax contributions — decides how much comes out of each check on top of federal tax and FICA. Run your numbers below to see the full federal-plus-Ohio breakdown per paycheck and per year.

Ohio tax notes

  • Ohio reaches a single 2.75% flat rate in 2026, with the first ~$26,000 of income untaxed.
  • Most Ohio cities levy municipal income taxes of 1%–3% on wages — not modeled here, and often the bigger bill.
