How This Calculator Works

On a $75,000 salary paid every two weeks, each Nebraska paycheck starts at $2,885. About $295 goes to federal income tax, $221 to Social Security and Medicare and $97 to Nebraska income tax, leaving about $2,272 before any 401(k), insurance or other deductions.

That state withholding is 29th of 51, near the middle, $2 less than the typical state per paycheck ($63 over a year).

Among neighboring states, South Dakota leaves the most: about $2,369 per paycheck on the same salary, $97 more than Nebraska. Where you pay income tax depends mainly on where you live and work, so check the rules before moving across a state line.

A real Nebraska pay stub can differ a little from these figures, because the estimate spreads the year's tax evenly across your paychecks instead of using your employer's withholding tables.
