Estimate a 2026 New York paycheck

Enter one biweekly paycheck, the allowances on Form IT-2104 and your resident location. The result separates federal, New York State, New York City or Yonkers withholding.

$2,500 biweekly example for an NYC resident$1,900.71

Federal withholding: $216.15
Employee Social Security and Medicare: $191.25
New York State withholding: $109.12
New York City resident withholding: $82.77

This example assumes two New York allowances and no other deductions. Your W-4, IT-2104, benefits and year-to-date wages can change the result.

When the calculator stops

It does not estimate other pay frequencies, more than ten allowances, Yonkers nonresident withholding or the Method III high-income calculation. Use the official withholding publication when those facts apply.

Why residence matters

New York City resident withholding is based on residency, not simply working in the city. If the address is uncertain, use the official jurisdiction guidance.
