How This Calculator Works

On a $75,000 salary paid every two weeks, each Virginia paycheck starts at $2,885. About $295 goes to federal income tax, $221 to Social Security and Medicare and $135 to Virginia income tax, leaving about $2,234 before any 401(k), insurance or other deductions.

That state withholding is the 9th highest of 51 (50 states and D.C.), $35 more than the typical state per paycheck ($902 over a year).

Among neighboring states, Tennessee leaves the most: about $2,369 per paycheck on the same salary, $135 more than Virginia. 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 Virginia 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.
