This estimate assumes a single job with no dependents, tax credits, or extra withholding requested on Form W-4 (note: PA state/local tax isn't affected by W-4 elections, but federal withholding is).

How this is calculated
// PA taxes gross compensation directly — no standard deduction.
// Unlike federal/most states, PA does NOT exclude 401(k) contributions from taxable pay.
PA Taxable Pay = Gross Pay − Health/HSA/FSA (401(k) stays in the base)
PA State Tax = PA Taxable Pay × 3.07%
Local EIT = PA Taxable Pay × your local rate
Take-Home Pay = Gross Pay − Federal Withholding − PA State Tax − Local EIT − FICA − Pre-tax Deductions
// Unlike federal/most states, PA does NOT exclude 401(k) contributions from taxable pay.
PA Taxable Pay = Gross Pay − Health/HSA/FSA (401(k) stays in the base)
PA State Tax = PA Taxable Pay × 3.07%
Local EIT = PA Taxable Pay × your local rate
Take-Home Pay = Gross Pay − Federal Withholding − PA State Tax − Local EIT − FICA − Pre-tax Deductions
