Federal income tax · withheld−$108.15−$2,812.00

Worked out from your pay and your Form W-4 with the IRS percentage method (Worksheet 1A): yearly pay, minus the allowance for your filing status, into the 2026 annual table, minus W-4 credits, divided by paychecks. Each line, for this paycheck:

Hourly pay in Oregon

Oregon's minimum wage depends on where you work. From July 1, 2026 it is $16.80 in the Portland metro area, $15.55 standard, and $14.55 in non-urban counties. There is no lower tipped wage: tip credits are illegal in Oregon, so tips come on top of the full minimum.

Overtime. Time-and-a-half for hours over 40 in a workweek. Workers in manufacturing also get overtime after 10 hours in a day.

Every hour counts. The transit tax and Paid Leave Oregon are percentages of your wages, so overtime and extra shifts raise them along with your pay. Tips count as wages for Paid Leave Oregon.

Minimum wage after taxes in Oregon

At Oregon's minimum wage of $15.55 an hour (since July 1, 2026), a full-time worker takes home about $993.70 every two weeks - $25,836 a year, or $12.42 for each hour worked after tax. It's adjusted each July 1 for inflation; the July 2027 rates are usually announced in spring.

Minimum wage, $15.55/hourGross per paycheckTake-home per paycheckTake-home a yearAfter tax per hour
40 hours a week$1,244.00$993.70$25,836$12.42

20 hours a week$622.00$537.79$13,982$13.44

Paid every two weeks, single filer, standard W-4, no benefits. There's no lower cash wage for tipped workers here. Every state's figures: minimum wage after taxes by state.

Take-home at common hourly rates in Oregon

Full time (40 hours a week), paid every two weeks, single filer with a standard W-4 and no benefits. The last column is what you keep for each hour worked.

$30$1,835.45$47,722$22.94

Part time and overtime at $20 an hour in Oregon

Every two weeks, single filer, standard W-4. Overtime is paid at 1.5 times the rate. More hours mean a larger share is withheld, because withholding is worked out as if each paycheck were repeated all year.

Hours a weekGross per paycheckTake-home per paycheckKept
20 hours$800.00$669.1284%
30 hours$1,200.00$961.6580%
40 hours$1,600.00$1,250.2578%
40 hours + 5 overtime$1,900.00$1,465.2077%
40 hours + 10 overtime$2,200.00$1,691.1577%

Because hours change from week to week, your withholding changes too: a week with lots of overtime is withheld as if you earned that much every week, so more comes out. It usually evens out when you file your return.

Tips and overtime in 2026

New federal deductions apply for 2025 through 2028: up to $25,000 for qualified tips, and up to $12,500 ($25,000 for joint filers) for the extra "half" of time-and-a-half overtime. Both phase out above $150,000 of income ($300,000 joint).

These are deductions on your tax return. Your employer still takes Social Security and Medicare out of tips and overtime, and still withholds income tax unless you tell it otherwise. If you expect to claim them, you can put the expected amount in Step 4(b) of your W-4 (and in the Step 4(b) box above) so less income tax is withheld during the year.

Every line that comes out of an Oregon paycheck, with its official source, is set out on the Oregon paycheck calculator.
