Frequently asked questions

Does Illinois have a state income tax?

Yes. Illinois taxes wage income. This calculator applies an estimated rate of 4.95%, which is a simplified average and not the exact state tax table.

How is my Illinois paycheck calculated?

Federal income tax is figured after the standard deduction and any 401(k) contribution. Social Security is 6.2% up to the wage base, Medicare is 1.45%, and state tax is added using the Illinois estimate.

Are local taxes included?

No. City, county and school district taxes, health insurance and other payroll deductions are not included, so your real paycheck may differ.
