Wisconsin has not published its 2026 figures.
Wisconsin's rate page still shows tax year 2025, and its employer withholding tables are dated 2022. The numbers on this page apply an inflation adjustment to the last published year. They are an estimate, not a rate Wisconsin has set.

How Wisconsin taxes income
Wisconsin has 4 brackets for a single filer, so the rate on your last dollar is higher than your overall rate.
What this does not include
- Dependants, children, and credits that have to be claimed on a return
- Post-tax deductions, such as health insurance premiums
- Anything on a W-4 beyond filing status
- Head of household and married filing separately, which are not modelled
- Wisconsin's department publishes nothing later than tax year 2025, whose single brackets are 14,680 / 50,480 / 323,290. These 2026 figures apply a roughly 2.9% inflation adjustment to those and are a projection, not a published rate.
Wisconsin has not published 2026 figures. These are estimated from the last published year.
