Oregon state tax uses Form OR-W-4 with 1 allowance (yourself), 2 for married (you and your spouse), and the federal tax the calculator works out on this page, which Oregon lets you subtract. Local income taxes, such as the Metro Supportive Housing tax and the Multnomah County Preschool for All tax in the Portland area, and the Workers' Benefit Fund assessment (cents an hour) are not included.

Each paycheck is the yearly amount divided by the number of paychecks, in cents. If your pay is over the Social Security limit of $184,500.00, your real paychecks have no Social Security tax late in the year. The average rate is your taxes divided by your pay. The marginal rate is the same taxes on your next dollar. This is an estimate for 2026.
