How New Jersey income tax affects a paycheck

New Jersey uses progressive tax brackets, so the rate applied rises with annual income. Payroll annualizes each paycheck, applies the brackets below, then converts the result back to a per-period amount for the stub.

Annual incomeRate
$0.00 – $20,000.001.40%
$20,000.00 – $35,000.001.75%
$35,000.00 – $40,000.003.50%
$40,000.00 – $75,000.005.53%
$75,000.00 – $500,000.006.37%
$500,000.00 – $1,000,000.008.97%
$1,000,000.00 and above10.75%

Worked example: $25/hour in New Jersey

An hourly employee earning $25.00 an hour, working 80 hours in a bi-weekly period, filing single:

Gross pay$2,000.00
Federal income tax$163.69
Social Security (6.2%)$124.00
Medicare (1.45%)$29.00
New Jersey income tax−$53.10
Net pay$1,630.21

That is 81.5% of gross pay taken home. Estimates for a standard W-2 employee with no pre-tax benefit deductions; not tax advice.
