About us
Nevada Paycheck Calculator is an independent website that publishes free, private paycheck calculators. It started as a take-home pay tool for Nevada workers — hourly casino and hospitality staff, salaried employees, and 1099 contractors — and now covers 14 states plus a federal calculator usable anywhere in the U.S.
Where our numbers come from
Federal withholding follows the percentage method in IRS Publication 15-T for 2026. Social Security and Medicare use the current wage base and rates published by the Social Security Administration and IRS. State and local withholding uses each state revenue agency's published tables and formulas, which we link on every state page. Our methodology page explains each step.
How we keep it accurate
- Tax tables are reviewed when the IRS and states publish new-year figures (usually December–January) and when mid-year law changes take effect.
- Every calculator shows the tax year and the date its tables were last updated.
- Calculation logic is covered by automated tests against worked examples.
Privacy by design
Calculations run entirely in your browser. We never ask for your name, employer, or Social Security number, and your salary inputs are not sent to our servers. See our privacy policy.
Not tax advice
Results are estimates. Your employer's payroll system, benefit elections, and local rules can change your actual paycheck. For decisions that matter, check your pay stub or speak with a CPA or enrolled agent.
