How it works
This calculator estimates the take-home value of your overtime by calculating overtime pay at 1.5 times your hourly wage and then subtracting taxes using the rate you provide.
This is only an estimate. Real payroll withholding can vary based on federal, state, and local taxes, as well as benefit deductions and filing status.
Example
If you make $20 per hour, work 5 overtime hours, and estimate a 22% tax rate, your overtime gross pay is $150 and your estimated take-home overtime pay is $117.
FAQ
Is this exact payroll withholding?
No. This uses your estimated tax rate for a quick approximation. Actual take-home pay can differ.
Why does overtime feel taxed more?
Overtime may appear to be taxed more because withholding methods on larger checks can increase the amount withheld, even though your true year-end tax liability may differ.
