Paycheck taxes in New York — what to expect
State withholding on a New York paycheck follows 9 progressive brackets up to 10.90%, which means the state line grows faster than pay as income crosses each band — the reason a mid-year raise can shift withholding more than expected. New York's state standard deduction is $8,000 for single filers and $16,000 for married filing jointly in 2026. New York City and Yonkers residents owe additional local income tax (about 3.078%–3.876% in NYC) not included in these statewide figures.
For a single filer earning $75,000, roughly $2,233.55 lands in the bank each biweekly payday in New York (about $4,839.37 on a monthly cycle) after estimated federal and state tax and FICA. New York employees also see State Disability Insurance (SDI) and Paid Family Leave (PFL) at about 0.5% of wages (capped) plus a small PFL deduction (SDI capped at $0.60/week; PFL capped annually) withheld each paycheck.
Withholding here follows 2026 tables from New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (https://www.tax.ny.gov/pit/file/tax-tables/). Your actual stub also reflects W-4 elections, pre-tax benefits and 401(k) deferrals, so treat these figures as the baseline before those adjustments.
