Virginia uses four progressive income tax brackets from 2% to 5.75% on taxable income after the standard deduction and personal exemptions. This Virginia paycheck tax calculator breaks out state income tax, federal withholding, Social Security, Medicare, and benefit deductions so you see exactly what is withheld from each check.
Virginia taxes income at 2% on the first $3,000, 3% from $3,000 to $5,000, 5% from $5,000 to $17,000, and 5.75% above $17,000 of taxable income. The standard deduction is $8,750 for single filers and $17,500 for married filing jointly. Virginia has no local income tax — unlike Maryland or Indiana, your county of residence does not add another withholding layer.
