Oregon Paycheck Calculator 2026
Enter your pay and your OR-W-4 to see what lands in your bank account. Oregon withholds income tax at 4.75% to 9.9%, plus a small statewide transit tax and your share of Paid Leave Oregon - we show each one.
How much does Oregon take out for taxes? On a $60,000 salary paid every two weeks (single, standard W-4), Oregon takes $169.16 of each $2,307.69 paycheck - 7.3% of pay, including Oregon statewide transit tax and Paid Leave Oregon. With federal income tax ($193.08) and Social Security and Medicare ($176.54), $538.78 comes out in all - 23.3% - and you keep $1,768.91.
= $884.46 a week · $3,832.67 a month · $45,992.00 a year
Gross pay$2,307.69$60,000.00
Your pay before anything is taken out: yearly pay divided by the 26 paychecks in a year (hourly pay is a week's pay × 52, spread the same way).
Federal income tax · withheld−$193.08−$5,020.00
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:
| Pay subject to income tax, for the year · $2,307.69 × 26 paychecks | $60,000.00 |
| Minus the IRS withholding allowance · Pub 15-T Worksheet 1A, line 1g | −$8,600.00 |
| Adjusted yearly wage | $51,400.00 |
| Tax from the IRS yearly table · standard table | $5,020.00 |
| Federal income tax per paycheck · divided by 26 | $193.08 |
IRS Publication 15-T (2026), Worksheet 1A - the percentage method payroll software uses for a Form W-4 from 2020 or later. Your employer's figure can differ by a few cents because of rounding.
Adjusted yearly wage: $51,400.00, so this row applies:

What comes out of an Oregon paycheck
- Federal income tax withholding - worked out from your pay and your Form W-4, using the IRS tables for 2026.
- Social Security - 6.2% of your pay, up to $184,500 of pay in 2026. Above that, it stops for the rest of the year.
- Medicare - 1.45% of all your pay, plus 0.9% on pay above $200,000 in the year.
An Oregon paycheck usually has three state lines:
- Oregon income tax - worked out with the Department of Revenue's formula. Your employer takes your yearly pay, subtracts part of the federal income tax withheld (up to $8,750 a year) and the Oregon standard deduction ($2,910 single, $5,820 married), applies rates from 4.75% to 9.9%, then takes off $263 for each allowance on your OR-W-4.
- Statewide transit tax: 0.1% of your wages ($1 per $1,000), with no yearly cap. It comes out even when no income tax does.
- Paid Leave Oregon - the 1% contribution is split, and you pay 60% of it: 0.6% of your wages ($6 per $1,000), on pay up to $184,500 for the year.
Open the "Oregon income tax" line in the result to see each step. Oregon's formula needs the federal tax withheld; we estimate it from your federal W-4 filing status.
What's different about Oregon
Federal tax lowers your Oregon tax - up to a point
Oregon lets part of the federal income tax withheld from you count against your Oregon pay: up to $8,750 a year. Above $125,000 of yearly pay for single workers ($250,000 married), that amount shrinks in steps, and it is gone at $145,000 ($290,000 married).
Your OR-W-4
Oregon has its own withholding form, the OR-W-4, with three choices: single, married, or married but withheld at the higher single rate. Each allowance takes $263 a year off your Oregon withholding, but allowances count for nothing once your pay passes $100,000 (single) or $200,000 (married). Single people who claim three or more allowances get the married standard deduction and rate brackets. If you never gave your employer an OR-W-4 or an older W-4 it can use, it withholds a flat 8% of your wages.
Bonuses
Your employer can withhold a flat 8% from a bonus or commission paid at a different time than your regular pay.
Local taxes around Portland
If you work in the Metro district or in Multnomah County and earn $200,000 or more in the year, your employer withholds two local income taxes: Metro's supportive housing tax (1% of pay over $200,000) and Multnomah County's Preschool for All tax (1.5% over $200,000, 3% over $400,000). You can use the opt-in or opt-out forms to change this. Answer the two questions above to include them. The TriMet and Lane Transit District taxes are paid by employers, not taken from your pay.
Paydays and your last paycheck
Paydays can't be more than 35 days apart. If you are fired or laid off, your final paycheck is due by the end of the next business day. If you quit with at least 48 hours' notice, it is due on your last day. With less notice, it is due within 5 business days or on the next regular payday, whichever comes first. If you are owed wages, you can file a complaint with the Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI).

What changed for 2026
Oregon's income tax rates stayed at 4.75% to 9.9% for 2026, but the withholding formula's inflation-adjusted amounts changed, and the minimum wage rose on July 1, 2026.
- New federal withholding tables. The IRS updated Publication 15-T for 2026, including changes from the 2025 tax law. The standard deduction is $16,100 single, $32,200 married filing jointly, and $24,150 head of household.
- Social Security wage base: $184,500 (up from $176,100). If you earn more, Social Security stops later in the year.
- Tips and overtime deductions for 2025–2028 - see below.
- Withholding formula for 2026: standard deduction $2,910 single and $5,820 married; $263 per allowance; up to $8,750 of federal tax subtracted.
- Paid Leave Oregon: still 1%, with employees paying 60%, on wages up to $184,500.
- Minimum wage from July 1, 2026: $16.80 in the Portland metro area, $15.55 standard, and $14.55 in non-urban counties (up from $16.30, $15.05 and $14.05).
Why your paycheck might differ from this
- Your W-4. Credits for children (Step 3), a checked Step 2 box, or extra withholding (Step 4c) change the federal amount a lot. Open "Tips, 401(k), health insurance and W-4 details" above to enter them.
- Benefits taken before tax. Health insurance through work usually lowers income tax and Social Security and Medicare. A traditional 401(k) lowers income tax only.
- Rounding. Payroll software may round each step, so a few cents of difference is normal.
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.
