How to use this calculator

This tool estimates federal and state income taxes for Head-of-Household filers. Enter your annual gross income, select your state, and add common pre-tax deductions (401(k), HSA, IRA) to see an estimated tax liability and take-home pay.

Inputs explained

  • Annual Gross Income: Your total income before taxes and deductions.
  • State: Select the state where you live — state tax rates vary.
  • Dependents: Number of qualifying dependents for the tax year.
  • Pre-tax contributions: Contributions to retirement or HSA reduce taxable income.

Examples

  • Example: $60,000 income, 1 dependent, $3,000 401(k) — shows how pre-tax savings reduce your tax.
  • Try switching the state to see the impact of state income tax differences.

Tips & common mistakes

  • Use annual amounts (not monthly) for income and contributions.
  • Enter pre-tax contributions only if they are taken from payroll before taxes.
  • This calculator estimates taxes — consult a tax professional for filing decisions.
