Oregon Paycheck Calculator (2026)
Estimate your Oregon take-home pay after federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, Oregon income tax and Oregon payroll taxes.
Oregon income tax and payroll taxes in 2026
Oregon has four income tax brackets from 4.75% to 9.9%. The top rate applies above $125,000 for single filers. Oregon has no sales tax, so income tax is the main source of state revenue.
Oregon lets you subtract part of your federal income tax, up to a cap. Employees also pay 0.6% to Paid Leave Oregon on wages up to $184,500 and a 0.1% statewide transit tax. The calculator combines these as 0.7%. Portland and the Metro area charge extra local taxes that are not included.

How to keep more of your paycheck in Oregon
On a $60,000 salary, putting 5% ($3,000) into a traditional 401(k) reduces your yearly take-home pay by about $2,409 (roughly $93 less every 2 weeks). That is less than the full $3,000 because the contribution saves about $360 in federal income tax and about $231 in Oregon tax. The tax you avoid stays in your pocket instead of going to the government.
Filing status also matters. A married couple filing jointly with one $60,000 income takes home about $48,808 a year in Oregon, compared with $45,989 for a single filer, mostly because of the larger standard deduction and wider tax brackets.
How this calculator works
We subtract your 401(k) contribution and the 2026 standard deduction ($16,100 single, $32,200 married filing jointly), then apply the 2026 federal brackets (IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32). Social Security is 6.2% up to $184,500 of pay, and Medicare is 1.45% (plus 0.9% on high pay). Oregon subtracts a capped federal tax deduction and its small standard deduction, then applies four brackets and a personal credit.
