How this calculator works

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

Step 2 applies New York's graduated schedule (4% to 10.9%) 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.
