Nebraska state income tax calculator

Estimate Nebraska income tax using the 2.46%/3.51%/5.01%/5.20% bracket schedule.

How this calculator works

Step 1 starts with the Nebraska taxable income you already calculated on your return. If you are a part-year resident or nonresident, the tool applies the Nebraska income percentage you provide to focus on Nebraska-source income.

Step 2 applies Nebraska's graduated schedule (2.46%, 3.51%, 5.01%, 5.20%) to estimate total tax.

Step 3 summarizes the effective and marginal rates so you can see how additional income would be taxed and whether your current estimate matches your expectations.
