Minnesota Paycheck Taxes

Minnesota withholds state income tax using its 2026 withholding method (graduated), in addition to federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare.

Minnesota also has employee-paid payroll taxes beyond income tax withholding: Minnesota Paid Leave (employee share). These are calculated separately from state income tax and shown as their own line items in your results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Minnesota have state income tax?

Yes. Minnesota withholds state income tax on a graduated schedule based on the filing status and allowances claimed on Form W-4MN.

What is Minnesota Paid Leave, and how much comes out of my paycheck?

Minnesota Paid Leave is funded by a 0.88% total payroll premium. State law requires employers to cover at least half; the default assumption here is the 50/50 split (0.44% from your wages), but your employer can choose to pay more of it — adjust the employee-share field in the State Taxes tab to match your actual paystub.

What taxes come out of a Minnesota paycheck?

Federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, Minnesota state income tax, and a Minnesota Paid Leave premium. Minnesota has no local income tax.
